I’ve got mail

by Bruce Wadd

 

I received an email from a long-term subscriber recently.  “I’d actually never thought about replying before,” she said in her opening statement.  What surprised her the most was the answer she received within minutes.

 

“I got even more excited about getting an answer back so soon,” she replied.

 

Yes, that’s right - there are humans, writing from real life experience, producing this devotional!  We are alive and well, and - like you - walking every day in God!

 

We, like you, are humans journeying, and today I wanted to point you to something much more important than replying to this email… sending one to God!  I wonder how many haven’t actually spoken to God recently… or heard a reply!

 

When was the first time you heard from God?  Do you remember?
[My first prayer to God @ 17 changed my life!]

 

How is your communication with your Father now?  Rushed?  One way?  Non-existent?  Are you struggling to hear from Him?

 

You might be pleasantly surprised by taking the time to talk with Him… and then waiting for His reply!  It may even make you wonder… Why you haven’t been talking with Him more! Why not share your experiences!

 

“I will pray morning, noon and night,

pleading aloud with God; and He

 will hear and answer.”

Psalm 58:17
