TALK TO HIM

Someone told me to write down on a sheet of paper all that i want to tell God concerning an overwhelming issue in my heart which i wish to settle with Him. Afterwards, I should burn the paper to keep the matter private between me and the Lord. I did not do it nyahahaha simply because it was tiring to do so. If i have something to deal with God then i will talk to Him which is "easier" considering that i am into long discussions with Him. I wonder how many sheets of paper i will consume if i will pour out my heart in writing.

I did not see the necessity thereof anymore because it is no longer rated as "consuming". Instead of holding a pen, I prayed and had a good convo (one-way) with our loving Father in heaven. I did not hear Him answering some of my queries but I am confident that He noted them all. It warms my heart knowing the our great God is in the business of listening to the groans of His children.

Psalm 34:15
The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
And His ears are open to their cry.

If only talking to others is as easy as conversing with God then life could have been better. It is who God is that makes speaking to Him calm, beautiful, open and a blessing. Christ must always increase in us so that we will reflect His person and the people around us would be delighted to talk to us and our speech become encouragements to them. No, we are not God's substitutes but He can use us to extend comfort to those who mourn or any manner at a loss.

To have someone to talk to is a timeless gift from above. I remember my lolo and lola and I believe that the secret to their strong relationship was the number of hours they spent talking to each other. They just never run out of things to talk about :-) They died at 93 and 88 on the same year, 2009. I believe lola had less reason to continue living when she lost lolo early that year. How dragging it'd been to her to finish a day without lolo around to talk to.

As most of my friends are also busy with their own lives, it is hard to find a constant talk buddy, i am glad that access to God is unlimited :-)


Below are Hermie (green) and Wormie (brown) talking to God as to their desire to be different or to be anything but an ordinary caterpillar. Hermie inquired from God why his looks was nothing striking or special like that of the snail that has a built-in-house on its back or the ladybug that has attractive spots. God told Hermie that He was not finish with him yet. God asked Hermie in return, "who made the snail? who made the ladybug?". Hermie answered, "those SPECIAL creatures were made by You, God". God replied, "who made you Hermie?". "You", Hermie answered :-)

I have a collection of Hermie and friends' movies by Max Lucado. The stories are best in teaching kids good values and awareness of God. That's the trailer but it has the link to the full movie.
