These past two weeks I have been learning one of the hardest lessons ever and that is learning to be still and to quiet my thoughts.

Understanding that God does talk a lot was hard for me to grasp because I have a hard time hearing Him. I came to the realization that the problem wasn't that He never talks to me, but that I am not as good as a listener as I thought.

I would go off and sit alone and try to hear God but even though I was quiet on the outside, my thoughts on the inside are always running wild. When we would regroup to share the things God said to us, Id have nothing to share and in that I was getting pretty upset with myself.

It wasn't until I asked God why He wasn't speaking as much to me as others that I felt Him say, I am always talking but you are never listening, so the reason you can't hear me is because you can only hear yourself.

It is still a learning process to be silent in my thoughts and be still, but I know that out of being obedient to this God has many things to say to me, just like He has many things to say to each and every person.

In Christ,

Cayla
