So at work they’ve got the chip card reader now for the debit cards..and when it approves your transaction then it beeps really loud at you..letting you know that it’s okay to take the card out that you’ve been approved..but for some of the people they don’t even hear it..they totally ignore that loud beeping sound..until I say to them your approved you can remove your card..in some cases the customer can’t hear all that well..and in other cases the customer will say they just block the noise..but then there is the ones in whom says that their school teachers so their used to blocking out all of that extra noise that comes..but I thought to myself I wonder how many in life blocks and are not at all that sensitive to the Lord when He may speak to them..or even correct them..I wonder if they as well are blocking Jesus..from not being able to hear Him because of all of the noise that comes with life in and of itself..for I know that we all have to stay focused on what the Lord is saying to us..we have to be sensitive to the Lord and His guidance and His leading..because this world sure does get noisy..and if were not careful we will block that still small voice of Jesus trying to get our attention..even if He may at times get a little louder such as that card reader that beeps rather loudly but still people don’t pay no never mind to it..so today my heart and my prayer is that we seek the Lord the word of God says while He still can be found..Isaiah 55:6..for as well it tells us in the book of Matthew for him that hath ears to let them hear..Matthew 13:9..that’s why I believe we always have to take time out in our day to find that place alone with the Lord and have fellowship with Him..for in doing so it keeps our minds clear and our hearts susceptible to hear and respond when the Lord is speaking to us..for by listening to the Lord we get so much more taken care of and accomplished in our lives..for He always has something He is needing and or wanting to say to us..so make sure that your hearing and that your listening..for the word says that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God..Romans 10:17..for we study to show ourselves approved unto the Lord a workman that needeth not to be ashamed but rightly dividing the word of truth..2 Timothy 2:15..so let us do our best to hear the Lord when He is speaking unto us..for there is no better voice than the voice of Jesus..for He says my sheep know my voice, and I know them, and they follow me..John 10:27..for He says the voice of a stranger they will not follow..John 10:5..and thank goodness He is our Shepard and we are His sheep..so let us follow the good Shepard..for it says that we all like sheep have gone astray..and none of us ever want to be lead astray..so we must focus and we must pay attention always..not to ever block out the Lord and His voice..for we that is the one voice that we need to hear..and always be able to hear in our lives..so be still as the word of God says and know that He alone is the Lord..Psalm 46:10…In Jesus’ name, I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
