I can't hear the voice of God

A few friends have told me that sometimes when they pray, they can't hear the voice of God.

Here are a few reasons why God's voice can't be heard.

1. Your heart is "noisy"!
     When you are in a state of chaos, it is difficult to hear the voice of God. If there are too many things going on in your mind, then God's voice only becomes one of the noises.

2. You may want to spend more time with God. Are you spending time conversing with God? Do you know the more you talk with someone, the more you can recognize one's voice? It is the same likewise with God. The more you spend time with God, the better you are able to recogize His voice and the clearer you will understand how He speaks.

3. You are only looking for what you want to hear. God may have already spoken to you, but it is contrary to your desire, since it isn't something you are seeking, you categorize the voice as the devil's voice. When you hear something that does not match with your desire, you may refuse to recognize it was God's answer for you.

I am thankful for the opportunity to be able to share my faith with some people I have met. Please pray for my friend, who told me today that she would also like to come to church with me this Sunday. She is a girl in my dorm, from Cambodia and her name is............

Truth

Sometimes truth is difficult for us to comprehend, but we are to understand it but not simplify it! I find this statement an important claim when understanding what truth is. If truth is hard to grasp, we need to wait patiently and study constantly in order to understand instead of changing and twisting it. This is a good reminder and good encouragement for me

Am I living like a daughter of God?

The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. Romans 8:15-16 Today's reading comes from Romans 8. It talks about believers being set free from slavery and accepted as sons and daughters in Christ. If God is my father, the source of joy, peace and abundance, why am I still enslaved to fear? Fear has always been one of my greatest enemies. I can fear all sorts of things, whether be fearing that I am not perfect enough to be loved, not smart enough to do things right , not pretty enough to be noticed, not being able to say the things right to be accepted...etc.  All the fears the devil speaking into my mind  always seem so true that they overwhelm me and make me think that I am the worst person in the world and I am not going to be any better. The more I agree with ...
