Examining

Today I sat with a friend and we talked a lot.  We usually do that together (talk a lot). It's few and far between that we actually get opportunity to spend time together but when we do it is always a perfect time. What a gift she is to me! What a great listener she is too. She is graceful, patient, forgiving and kind. I took note of this today.

I am so lifted up by her example. I am challenged and encouraged by her consistency.

This sweet friend reminds me that it is never time to pack up shop and decide you quit learning in life. There is so much to know! There is so much room to grow. And God has so much to offer. Unlimited.

To be a seeker of the truth you, sometimes, must dig and probe and push and tear through, and examine.

Today God had me thinkin'- how often do I spend time just to get to know Him and learn His heart a little more? Do I come often to spend quality time or do I pop in from time to time, real quick, for an answer or a token of wisdom. "Hey God, what should I do here? What's best?.. Ok, great, thanks for the advice. Talk to ya later!"

If I want to know you more, I must slow down to hear that you desire quality time.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. -Deuteronomy 65
