I realize that what I am about to say is a direct contradiction to what I am about to do. In fact, the very nature of a blog contradicts what I am about to write. Therefore, I am going to keep this short.
Recently, I have been spending a lot of time with Francis Chan’s Forgotten God. In that book, he encourages us to quit talking and listen. We are excellent at the front end of the communication cycle. We like to hear our voice and read our writings, but do we really listen. (I am well-aware that this is a personal struggle of mine.) In particular, do we listen to God.
Here is my encouragement. Let’s shut up for a while and listen. Listen to God. See if He hasn’t been trying to speak to you. I’m gonna shut up and listen.
