"Listen A Little More"
One of my favorite stories about Mother Teresa involved a reporter asking what she often says when she prayed. She answered, "Well, I don't say much. I mostly listen." The reporter then said, "What does God say to you?" And again, Mother Teresa answered, "Well, He doesn't say much- He just listens." It made me think how often do I just listen? God has a way of telling us where we need to be doesn't He? The thing is we aren't always listening, or we hear what we want to hear. We challenge how our prayers are answered, and then ask for a different outcome. Over the years I've come to realize I don't need more than what God is giving me. I don't need to question His timing. I just need to pay better attention. Take in the blessings as they come and stop asking for more. Appreciate it a little more. Give thanks a little more. Reflect on it a little more. Listen a little more. Which honestly is the key. Listen to God the way He listens to us.
Believe in the Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is for a moment of silence. A moment to listen to God, and then understand that He hears everything you need Him to hear.
Have a blessed week everyone.
