Sometimes I swear my kids have hearing problems. And everyone else around me, too. There are days, today being one of them, when it seems that everyone is deaf to the sound of my voice. I repeat everything several times to no avail. I'm pretty sure this is common among parents of young children! By the end of the day, I am so frustrated and a little angry.
And I wonder, how often do I make God feel this way about me?? How often am I so distracted by my day and the things I put in my life that I don't hear Him or just don't pay attention? When I think about it like this, in light of my frustration, it saddens and convicts me. I want to be a person who listens. Who is ready to listen. Who is paying attention. God has something He needs and wants me to hear. I want to be there to hear it and respond!
