He Hath Heard My Voice

I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live. Psalm 116:1-2

I love the Lord: Everyday I am reminded that I love the Lord. I have a heart that over flows with love for Him. It is possible for me to love the Lord because He first loved me.

He hath heard my voice and my supplications: How often have I come to the Lord with an aching heart, a worrisome heart, a tired heart? How many times have I not been able to say a word because of my pain or worry? How often have I been ashamed and could not even say what I wanted, what I needed? And yet, He hears me every time. He listens to my heart. He knows what I am feeling, thinking, without my saying a word.

He hath inclined His ear unto me: I know He hears when I pray, when I say nothing at all. I know that when I am in need of Him, He leans my way, carries me through. I am special to Him.

Therefore will I call upon him as long as I live: He is my God, my Lord. He cares for me. He never leaves me, never turns from me. I will turn to Him, I will call on His name, I will keep His ways before me; as long as I live.

Everyday I have a scripture waiting for me on my sidebar. I read them everyday. Some days they make me think, reflect more than usual. Today's verse did that. I felt a welling up in my heart and I wanted to share.
