Nothing makes me happier than when I feel God's presence and when my heart leaps for joy because He is with me. So many times I long to pick up the phone and call but that is not the way God works; that is not the way God communicates with me. I have to find a quiet place to talk with Him in order to hear Him, and I know He listens.
God Speaks
Come, and sat a while, my child.
Talk with me.
Let’s start!
Tell me what is on your heart.
As you draw near, I will hear.
Share, with me, your concern and care?
Tell me what sets your heart on fire?
Tell me your desire!
I want to hear you speak your thoughts;
What you are about and your doubt,
For I can direct your route.
I am with you all the day long,
So, share your sorrow, your troubles, your song.
I want to hear, comfort, and cheer.
Come to me so troubling thoughts will flee.
Come to me on fallen knee.
I listen as your tears glisten.
Embrace my presence and strength,
For I do not hold you at arm’s length.
As you enter my kingly space,
I hold you in the glory of my embrace.
I can release your woes and fear,
Because I love and hear.
Come to me, my child!
Let us talk a while.

“This is the confidence we have in approaching God; that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.” 1 John 5:14
