From the hoarse mouth.
Aloha!
The other day, prayer was briefly mentioned. Now, it's not something to be taken lightly by any means and it plays a large part in Volume.
"I am hoarse from calling out for help..." Psalm 69:3 (Msg)
Have you ever heard people on TV, screaming out prayers? Bawling at the top of their lungs and shouting as loud as they can? To me it seems like they have to shout so loud because they're so far from their God...but there are times when it's good to praise loud.
In all His glorious and incredible wisdom, God didn't cut us off from listening to Him, or speaking to Him. And what's more He made it simple and attainable; any time, any place, any where! Prayer does not always have to be vocal or loud, when I started out on my faith-journey I had no idea this was possible; prayer can take place in our heads! Prayer in silence! Wow! I was pretty stupid back then (and not much less now); I had no idea up until then that you didn't have to pray out loud [or whispering]! We can pray at any time, in any company, in any place! All from the comfort our own head!
Fact is, it gets better! :-)
God can hear our thoughts. Our hearts, our inner-most desires and troubles. When you kneel down, or lower your head, He's already well aware of what you're going to pray about, what His reply is going to be, and what's going to happen as a result. He already knows!
Wow!!!!! :-)
