Maybe it's just me. Sometimes, simple things seem hard to learn and put into practice. And, I'm talking simple!
A favorite chair. A small table next to it. And it's on this table that I keep a glass of water, a television remote, a box of Kleenex, a pen, a pencil, a notepad and in the morning, a latte'. Remember I said "small" table. Normally when I bring the coffee, rearrangement is necessary. Sometimes that involves stacking. Usually, that ends in small disasters. Kleenex to the rescue. Now, the reason I say all this
is to mention that as I rearrange things, I hear a small voice saying, "Don't do that". But, of course, I do it anyway. The results are as predicted. And, it's NOT the first time!

A few moments ago, I finished cleaning up after myself. Yes, it happened again. And it got me thinking. I've had a difficult time in the last few years listening to the voice of God. I'm always asking Him to tell me about the path that I should be on. I'm always asking for help. I'm always berating Him for not speaking to me. And now I wonder. If I haven't learned to obey the common sense, experience-based warning in order to avoid spilling water on my small table, then maybe I've heard the whispers, the promptings and the nudges that I've been so desperately seeking and I haven't learned to obey them either.
I just Googled "Listening to the Voice of God". In 0.41 seconds, 66,000 references were found. This link is the first one I chose. A bookmark is in order because I'm hearing, "Spend some time here". I will listen.
