Listening Father

Because He inclined His ear to me, therefore I will call on Him as long as I live. (Psalm 116:2)

Like an adult stoops to listen to a child speak,

stopping all else, even momentarily

falling down on one knee, and bending your head to one side.

Then let the child whisper into your ear.

In that moment, I am important.

Important enough to receive His full attention whenever I tug at His robe

He leaves all else and leans over,

coming down to my level

To hear what I have to say

Oh what a Father,

What amazing, patient love

This is why I will always call on Him as long as I live,

For He will always stop and listen to what I have to say.

 

Selah
