That Still Small Voice

If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. (1 John 3:20)

It’s been a very busy week. Everything is chaotic. There doesn’t seem to be enough time to do what I want to do and more importantly, I feel like my time with God is hurried – like I can’t linger as I want to. I was talking to God about that this morning and asking him for guidance. The worst thing we can do is be so busy we block out the whispers we need to hear. Then I came across this text. My worried heart relaxed. God knows where I am. He knows my heart and his ability to get my attention speaks volumes above my busy schedule.

Father God, thank you for talking. Thank you for loving us enough that you respond to our prayers. And Father God, thank you for lingering with us whether we feel too busy or not. Your love is too marvelous for words!  Amen
