The Importance of Being There
I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.—2 John 1:12 (NIV)

Look and Listen
Incline your ear, and come to me; hear, that your soul may live…—Isaiah 55:3 ESV
Most people live on the surface. They hurry from here to there and miss the most astonishing things. Slow down. Look around you. Listen for what God is saying through the people you meet and the things you see.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the unique ways You
speak to me. Today, help me to recognize the many ways
You communicate with me.
