Speak Lord!

I just came back after a meeting with some of the youth workers from Klang Valley. We met over lunch to discuss on how to minister to our outstation students who are studying in Campuses. It was an interesting meeting. Before the meeting, i had quite a lot of ideas on what we could do for these friends of ours who are away from their home (studying in KL). But in the course of talking, and listen to my friends, new 'revelations' came into my mind. I realised that we may have many thoughts in our mind, but if we are willing to listen there is always something new to learn!

As i thought about this, my conclusion is that God wants to speak to us and will speak to us at various occassions if we are willing to listen. The challenge is whether we are open to hear God or not? Our set ideas and experiences could become a barrier for God to speak. But if we ask God to speak, He will. It is just a matter of being tuned to God. In the last 24 hours what did God say to you? Don't you think that listening to God is far more important then anything else? It is not necessary to go away from the world (all the time) to hear God. If we have ears, we will hear Him when He speaks.
