He hears us
Psalm 116 says, “I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.”
When we pray we’re sometimes tempted to just throw our thoughts out to the room we’re in, with little connection to the fact that God hears us. God is attentive to everything in our lives! In a sobering way, God says that He will judge every idle word of our mouths-ouch! But on the positive side, God also listens and acts upon what we say to Him. He hears us. So what’s on my heart I bring to God’s attention and He acts upon our conversation by causing the very best of His will to come to pass in my life. He hears me. And when I’m scared, seemingly underresouced and out of answers, or directly in the path of difficulty, all I need to do is speak to Him. I can do it with all the emotion in my heart, with depth of despair and need and guess what? He doesn’t condemn me, He “inclines His ear” to me. And answers like a Father. I love the Lord because He has heard my voice and supplications-He hears me. Blessings, PB
