He's listening

I am a singer. No, I am not a good singer, I am just someone who likes to sing. I sing almost constantly about almost everything. As I have probably mentioned before, I grew up in a family that sung, and we sand everything from old country music to the dawning of rock and roll to the big-hair bands (my era). Needless to say, we sung.

So, who is your favorite singer? I've often thought of that but I finally figured it out one day. My favorite singer is King David. David wrote songs in the book of Psalms that have taught me to be more intentional in my conversation with others, and with GOD. I sing His praises to others, I have cried out to Him in my distress, and He hears them both.

Today's word is Psalm 34:17, NLT, which reads, "The LORD hears His people when they call to Him for help. He rescues them from all their troubles."

When we cry out to GOD, He hears. In the midst of all the noise, all the confusion, all the clamor, we may think that He can't hear us BUT HE DOES. He hears our deepest hurts, our darkest feelings, our strongest longings, our sincerest praise - He hears it all. Even when we may be able to come up with the words, He hears the song that is in our hearts. BUT, He doesn't just listen...

He acts. He hears us when we call out AND, He rescues us from all our troubles. Sometimes, I listen to people's situations but there is little I can do about it. However, GOD not only listens, He rescues us from those problems. Got things going on in your life that need some Fatherly attention? Got some things going on in your life that need some fixing? Sing a song to GOD - He's listening.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
