I felt rather reluctant to journal anything this week. By journalling, I mean writing down my thoughts and devotional reading in my physical book. I have sensed a compelling need to spend time alone with God these last few days but I kept procrastinating and ended up doing something else. Strangely, I've gone to bed later than my usual bedtime (which is after 3 am), because my body and mind wouldn't rest. Yesterday I fell asleep around 6:30 am!
Well, I wasn't under-stress or anxious or experiencing any severe emotion. Not even today. Maybe that's why I didn't run to God at once. Yet, I had been feeling like God had something important to tell me. Something that isn't just about health or usual topic I've talked about before.
So today I made time to hear Him speak. I prayed my heart's attentive, teachable, and ready to receive whatever He had to say. I hoped He was revealing His inner most thoughts and desires.
God then said through the Scriptures,
"Drop everything and listen!
Today, when you hear My voice, don't harden your hearts.
Don't turn a deaf ear."
And, of course, He meant what He said. . .
