"Can you hear me now?"

The subject of my pastor's sermon on Sunday was, "Can you hear me now?" and he spoke of this coronavirus being God's way of getting our attention. As I thought about what exactly God wants from us during this time, it occurs to me that while He may have some universal things He's expecting from His people, God may also be expecting different things from each of us, based upon who we are.

For example, for some He may be asking us to slow down. For others He may want us to spend more time in His Word, to reconnect with family and friends, to start a business, to consider a new job, to be more creative, or to simply be still. Whatever the case may be, God is definitely speaking and I don't think He expects us to come out of this time the same way we entered it.

​"Can you hear me now?" Yes, God. We're listening.

Most of the time, especially when everything is doing better, we tend to forget to talk to God. I am not saying that everyone does it, but most of the people I know have that kind of attitude. This question can be sop relatable because some people do not listen when God speaks. It is because their loves are on a good stage that's why they don't feel the urge to communicate with Him. Regardless if you have a problem or not, it will always be a goods idea to build a constant communication with Him. We should talk to him more often.

    Hello and Welcome to my blog!

    I'm a grown up "church girl" who is bouncing back from some hard blows, including an ugly divorce, financial hardship, and dreams deferred.  Now, more than ever before, I am embracing the idea of transformation and beautiful new beginnings. 

    Won't you take this journey with me?
