Pause for Prayer: Friday 2/10

Lord,

I know you speak to me all day long,

whether I'm listening or not

- and even through the night

while I'm fast asleep...

You speak in my heart, 
in my mind and my dreams,
in my hopes and my fears,
in my conscience
and in all my thoughts...

Sometimes your voice is loud and clear,
sometimes hushed and subtle,
sometimes just a whisper,
a quiet shuffling in my soul...

Sometimes I hear you plainly

and other times 

I totally miss the word you speak,

especially when the volume of life

is turned so high and full

I can hardly hear myself think

let alone listen for you,

to hear your voice

and the words you speak within me...

 

Help me find a time and place today, Lord,
to turn down the volume,
to tune out the noise around me
and listen, carefully and prayerfully,
for your word,

for the word I know you have for me
today...

Amen.
