listening

6/2/10 We are desperate for someone to listen to us. I spend a lot of my time simply listening to people. They need to be heard, to be understood. Yesterday, I spent 2 hours with the 2 young men who rent a condo we own in Corpus Christi. I asked a few open-ended questions. I made a few comments, but mostly I listened. As we went along, they both learned things about the other that they didn't know, yet they live in the same 2 bedroom condo.

We are also desperate for a word from God. We need to listen. We need a word of hope and healing. God listens to our prayers, but we are also made to listen for God.

Love,
Lynn
