What are the "voices" in your head that you remember hearing? Here are some of the most common ones that I'm sure we can all still hear our mom telling us.
- Sit up straight and quit slouching.
- Always wear clean underwear in case you are in an accident.
- Eat your peas.
- Be nice.
- Don't forget to wash behind your ears.
- Brush your teeth before you go to bed.
- Don't take candy from strangers.
We all have things we have been told to do, warned about or guided through by our parents or grandparents. And we have found over the years that it is good advice.
But what about the voice of God? When he talks to us, do we listen? Do we even hear? How many times in your life has God spoken to you and you have ignored Him. How many things have we put ourselves through simply because we are set in our willful ways and refuse to ignore the voice of God when He speaks to us?
Do I hear voices? Yes, I do. Do I listen to them? Not always. But I am glad that God continues to speak to me in that still quiet voice that guides me down life's highway.
