Why people? Why do we wait until we are hurting to want to talk to God and to listen to Him? I'm so guilty of this even right at this moment. If we just stop and do things God's way we can avoid a lot of pain. (Now I didn't say we wouldn't have pain, I just said we would avoid a lot of pain, or some of the extra pain we bring on ourselves.) We keep trying to rush God to find us happiness, make us rich, famous, beautiful; no we try to do it on our own, make our own love, create our own destiny, but we don't want to wait on God.
It isn't until we are at our point of anguish, despair, hurt, pain, confusion, sorrow, praying for death to find us that we truly realize that we should have given it to God from the beginning.
Now God you have my attention. It's a shame that I couldn't hear you until I was at the threshold of the pain I'm now feeling.
Great
