After class in Pomona I'm always the last person in the building as far as I know. There's a great silence in the room once everyone has left. So I started praying last Monday after class. I prayed out loud as I would speaking to another person, you know, actually loud! I realized that I never pray much out loud when I'm alone, certainly not as loud as normal speech.
It was very intimate. It was very tangible. It was very real.
It was sweet.
On my way home I listened to Pastor Britt Merrick from Carpinteria Calvary Chapel on 107.9 (KWAVE). He has indisputably the best song of all the radio shows on the station. I uploaded it at the end of this post for your convenience and listening pleasure. Britt was talking about how he loves to hear the voice of his son! One time he was playing with him and was asking him all these questions just to get a response! After he remained silent after all those questions he finally asked him what sound a doggie makes, just so he could hear his voice. He continued on about how God loves to hear our voice and how he bends his ear just to listen to us and how much pleasure it brings him.
Dude!!!!! That was totally just for me right there!!!!! Only a few minutes earlier I had been praying out loud and then I hear this message from God about how he loves hearing my voice?? Wow!!!! Isn't that so sweet??? and amazing!!! He loves to hear my voice!
And he also loves to hear yours! This is reality. This is the truth. The truth is sweet and better than I ever imagined. Jesus is reality!
