talking

One of my top abilities...non-stop talking! A gift, a curse an annoyance at times for those close by! I talk and talk each day, giving my opinion, expressing my thoughts putting in my "two cents worth". Why do we have such a need to be heard? Why do we think everyone simply has to know what our perspective is?

We have a natural desire to communicate, God desires communication with us. Can you believe it? He knows what is going to come out of our mouths, so why does He want to hear it?

He created us at least in part to commune with Him, He has every right to assume His creation would cry out in worship to Him...man, how disappointed He must be with the choices I make with my time! So what is it God values from us?

I would assume He simply wants us to realize He is our creator, He deserves our praise! I am never disappointed in my time with Him, but, sadly it is ME that has to decide to give him time. The enemy's trick is to so occupy our minds and our time with the distractions of the world that we forget who gave us our minds and our time...I am soooo easily distracted!

"My heart has heard you say, 'Come and talk with me.'
And my heart responds, 'LORD, I am coming.'"

—Psalm 27:8

Talk to Him today...more than usual.
