I am in the middle of teaching a three part series in high school where we are talking about the things that hinder our spiritual lives. One of the things I have been wrestling with in my own life recently is how difficult it is for me to really fall into relationship with my Creator. I love lists and I love ticking off the items one by one. The accomplishment of completeling the things I have set out to do really gets me pumped. I love to "get things done."
Here is the thing...God is not something to "get done" or "get to later." I am confessing that I have often relegated God to another check on my list. But the really cool thing is that in this process of encouraging others in the journey; I am learning (albeit slow) to be quiet and still before the Lord and to listen for Him. If He is singing and dancing over me then I want to hear the that song!
I am going to do my best to blog through my thoughts as I take the next 30 days to work through "Enjoy The Silence-A 30 Day Experiement In Listening To God" by Duffy and Maggie Robbins.
