you talking to me?



how do we communicate?
we have the internet to send email
pen and paper to write letters
sign language
the telephone
smoke signals
and in the movies, some aliens can communicate via telepathy

there are plenty of ways to communicate with each other, but how do we communicate with GOD?
the way to talk to GOD is through prayer, and since he is everywhere at all times, you can tlak with GOD whenever, wherever

which sparks another question, why don’t we communicate with GOD more often?
are we too busy with our lives? too busy communicating with others?

in psalms 139 david describes the omnipresence of GOD:
You know when I leave and when I get back; I'm never out of your sight.
I look behind me and you're there, then up ahead and you're there, too-- your reassuring presence, coming and going.
This is too much, too wonderful-- I can't take it all in!
Is there anyplace I can go to avoid your Spirit? to be out of your sight?
If I climb to the sky, you're there!
If I go underground, you're there!
If I flew on morning's wings to the far western horizon, You'd find me in a minute-- you're already there waiting!

GOD is everywhere, and he wants to have a relationship with us. he wants to have open communication. give and take. back and forth. daily.
