In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly. Psalm 5:3 NIV

“Learning to listen for God’s quiet but clear answers is important…How we need to cultivate a listening heart.”

God prepares us to receive His will for our lives. He allows us to recognize His guiding as He whispers to our hearts. He wants us to receive what we need to hear and realize when He has spoken.

We won't feel His tugging unless we're quiet, still and ready to to receive the expressions of His presence. He longs for us to recognize we are cradled in care. But sometimes we become too busy to notice.

God speaks through the Bible, through others and through our circumstances. He speaks through the Holy Spirit and allows us to recognize when we have been filled with His peace.

God will reveal His will in quiet moments when distractions will NOT be allowed to interrupt.. In this time of reflection, we will begin to understand what He's trying to say. We must remain faithful, prepare ourselves to be guided and patiently wait to discover the amazing things He's already planned for our days.

Dear Heavenly Father, Help us seek you with a listening heart. Allow us to recognize what we will hear when our souls have been quieted by Your greatness. Fill us with love and appreciation for ALL You provide! Oh, how we need You each and every day. Thank you, Lord! Thank you. Time with You will always set the stage for good to come...Amen
