Listening...
Had an interesting experience tonite...and somewhat of a "revelation". I just got a chance to talk to some friends...and...well...just listen to them. I don't think that I had much to say to them per se...but in the end...they seemed to be a bit more at ease. After listening to them...I also felt like I knew them a bit better...and trusted them a bit more for sharing with me.
Makes me wonder at the power of just listening to someone. Such a simple task...some would say you're not really DOING anything for them...but I know that for me at least, at times when there really isn't anything anyone can do for me, having them there to listen to me is the best thing I could ever ask for!
And you know what? It puts me at peace inside to think...to know...that I have someone in my life who will always be there...just to listen. No matter how much I have to say...no matter how arbritrary it may seem...my Father is there to listen.
And I also know that when the time is come...He will require the same of me...to just listen...I wonder if I'm ready to truly hear what He has to say...
