Dear God,

When we stop listening, we stop hearing.  We fail to receive the messages of heaven.

Why do we turn off our desire to hear, O Lord?  There is no one who can speak to us like you.  For you care for us more than all the rest.  Your word to us is always a word of hope and encouragement even if it is a word of conversion or challenge.  You know when there is need for change and frankly, every day is a possible day for transformation.

When we are made new by your word, joy overflows.  Only by tuning in to your voice shall we ever cross over into new land.

Open us

to your

holy voice,

dear God.

In the depths

of our soul,

we want

to hear

your sweet voice

that calls

our name.

Give us

the will

to listen.

Yours, Andrea
