Every day on my facebook page I get a message from God ... this was todays: "Prayer is when you talk to God. Meditation is when you become quiet and listen to God. You've learned how to talk and ask well. Time to learn how to listen and hear, because God has been answering you."
I never realized how hard it can be to listen until recently. I listened to God, I heard him guiding me the right way, I've made my decisions and I am living with them and moving foward. I have been saying for awhile now that I know God has something in store for me so big that I can't even begin to grasp it. Lately, I have been reading his word and trying to digest what he wants and where I am supposed to go next and I just don't know. Maybe I am not listening hard or close enough, maybe I am so set in my ways I need to change that so I can get set in his ways. Maybe, I am too selfish to understand what he wants out of me. I am so glad I am going back to church next week; its going to be a little overwhelming but so worth it.
So today my goal is to spend more time listening to his word and less time questioning what I am hearing.

I think we all need to listen more and question less. It is a hard thing to do sometimes when we want to be in control. We are not in control, only He is.
