Empty out your heart. Tell God exactly how you feel. Tell God exactly where it hurts and exactly why it hurts. Don’t hold back. He wants to hear from you.
It’s more powerful when you verbalize it. You can sit and think about it all day long, but sometimes it doesn’t mean anything if you don’t open your mouth and say it. You ever had a time when you know you needed to have a conversation with someone and you recounted what you wanted to say in your mind over and over again? However, it wasn’t until you said what you needed to say that you truly felt better. Well, I imagine it to be that way with God. He wants to hear from you.
Now, after you’ve said it, take a break and be silent; sit still.
It’s His turn to talk back to you. Listen intently because you don’t want to miss a word of His response. Now that you’ve emptied out your heart, allow Him to refill it with what He wants to be there. Allow the freshness of His Holy Spirit to renew you, to overtake you, to make you whole. Just say “yes” to His leading. Now that your heart is full of Him, it’s time for you to be what He’s called you to be.
This is a great post and I really love that song! Thanks for sharing!
