Day 7: LIST

Deuteronomy 30: 20a

I dread having listening comprehension during secondary school days. I have never failed, but neither do I enjoy listening much either. Why?
Because I believe all humans are easily distracted by nature. We all know we don’t just listen during listening comprehension. We look at the classmates around us and do stupid faces at them. We look at the clock and think how long more can it take. We think about what we want to eat during recess time, whether to eat tom-yam or nasi lemak. We look at the teacher and wonder why don’t they need to take such lame test with us. And the next thing we know, we scribble down our As, Bs, Cs and Ds and, it’s done!

No wonder God wants us to listen to Him. More than listening, He wants us to listen intently and be very sensitive to His voice because He knows we are easily distracted. Sometimes, I really think that we are all way too talkative and busy for unnecessary stuff, that it takes so much for us to shut up and listen.
Our God does not just ”collect” prayers. As much as we yearn for Him to listen to us, He yearns to be heard as well.
It takes a quiet & willing heart to listen. Try putting aside everything for an hour or two, and try listening out for that familiar voice. Don’t doze off!

God yearns us to listen to him. But God, exactly how is listening to your voice? it comes naturally? but what if im unable to hear? God, teach me. What exactly is it like, to listen? to hear? to spend time w/you. Goddddddddddddddddddd. isit, just by coming to you and talk about our problems? or what? or isit, for you God to speak into our lives? God, show me.
How is it like, to speak to hear from you. I want to be still wherever i may be. so that i could always be sensitive to your word God :) im going on a trip from wed - fri. & allow my hearts to be open. (: & have a great time with you as well in msia :) I wanna make use of every quiet night. to seek you, to speak to you God, God may you continue to work in MY LIFE. i yearn to see you move. lord, i want to desire, more of problems, i want to love my sheep. show me lord. Show me. BE obvious God, i yearn to hear. to see you move GOD.
