All believers, come here and listen,
let me tell you what God did for me.
I called out to him with my mouth,
my tongue shaped the sounds of music.
If I had been cozy with evil,
the Lord would never have listened.
But he most surely did listen,
he came on the double when he heard my prayer.
Blessed be God: he didn't turn a deaf ear,
he stayed with me, loyal in his love.
We can learn a lot about God through other people. I have learned a lot about God, recently, through others.... through people who are loyal in their love... my friends, some of my children (smile) and my husband. You may have read here, how Bart has amazed me by demonstrating what God is like. I have learned lately how to better imagine God’s arms around me, God’s presence in my life, and God’s willingness to always listen. And I have learned about His loyal love.
Regardless of what we do, where we go, and what happens to us, we are never far from God because He is within us. He is always waiting for us, offering Himself to listen to us and to be there, no matter what.
And as we grow more and more aware of His presence in our lives, He draws us closer to Himself with that ever-loyal love.
What more could I ask for?
