Whatcha Need?

I am not a shopper. Maybe I should say that I am the typical male shopper. I do most of my "shopping"/research online, I choose what I am going to purchase, I go to the store that offers the best deal, I go straight to that item, pick it up, check out, and go home. Period. I do not browse. I do not window shop.

There are several reasons for this type of shopping: it is efficient, it is effective, it is economical. However, I guess one of the best things to come from my type of shopping is that I don't have to deal with overly ambitious salespeople. They may actually be making sure that I am not going to pilfer anything; I do look a little mischievous.

You know the type of salesperson I am talking about. You can't walk five feet without them asking, "Can I help you with something? Is there anything you need? Is there anything I can help you find? Are you looking for anything in particular? Whatcha need?"

That's the question for today, "What do you need?" Everyone has so much going on that no of us ever even know about. Folks are battling everyday with health issues, financial concerns, family matters; we are all going through things. What do you need?

Today's word is a Thomas Brooks quote, which says, "GOD hears no more than the heart speaks; and if the heart be mute, GOD will certainly be deaf."

GOD knows our hearts' desires. He wants us to tell Him our hearts' desires. While He knows them, He doesn't hear it from us unless we tell Him. We all want our children to express to us their need(s). GOD, too, wants His children to express theirs. If you truly need it, GOD will provide. However, He can't hear if you don't speak. Whatcha Need? GOD is listening.

Be Blessed,
