Do you know how great it is to have a GOOD talk with a friend?  You know, one of those hours long talks with an old friend that leaves you feeling like you have talked about everything in the world?

I got to have one of those this weekend WITH GOD! How cool! I mean, I had an hours long, curled up on my couch with a cup of coffee and a blanket talk with the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE.  Life is amazing!

It all started on Thursday here.  That night, I marked up First John like it has never been marked.  I couldn’t stop (in the best possible sense!).  I spent ALL day at work thinking about getting home to read it again.  I don’t think I have ever DESIRED to read scripture like this.  When I came home Friday night, I read more.  It was great, but then…

I woke up at 8 am Saturday.  I made coffee, grabbed a muffin, and began my chat.  I started in First John again (I know!).  Then, because I am trying to learn to be quiet for once, I began to chase rabbits throughout scripture bouncing from one verse to the next about mouths, lips, talk, words.  I stopped at lunch and fixed something to eat.  The whole time I carried on some rambling talk with God.  I then refocused back on First John.  The conversation did not end until I got ready for church after 3 pm.  Really?  THE MAKER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH HUNG OUT WITH ME ALL DAY! How cool is that? 

It isn’t done… there is NO WAY that I am going to end this conversation.  If you are lucky, I just might share some of the amazing things He had to say to me!

How do you talk to God?  How do you hear Him talk to you?
