I hear voices in my head
Though I choose to only listen
for the Voice speaking in my heart instead
There my Savior and His Spirit dwell,
speaking softly of new life I can behold,
if I will but drink of His eternal well
Hush, I must be quiet
To hear that Voice so meek and mild
Words of love and gracious mercy
Come, My child, upon that journey
Walk through this world as I have done
Bringing light and healing to all who seek
Gather the lost and hurting souls
Be My Voice unto the folds
"This world could not contain Me,
in three days' time, 'twas death that lost its sting
So life need not end here and now
For I have gone before,
preparing a place for you
A place to lay your weary head
and all your toils and troubles bring"
So, here I sit with voices abounding
But, as I quietly sip from His eternal well,
it is only my Master's Voice I hear asounding
Yes Jody,Jesus speaks to us if we are willing to listen. It bothers me when people say they have never heard from Jesus and do not believe that he speaks to people nowadays.Oh, and when someone who has been to the hog pen and returns to the Father tells that they have been spoken to by him, you can see faces cringe,eyes flash,knuckles become white,etc. They fail to realize it is the humble who know how much they have been forgiven for,who he can use.
Jody, Helen took the words right out of my mouth.....we were discussing the very thing in church yesterday. We read from Jeremiah 29 and part of the discussion was being able to separate the false prophets from the true ones or else confusion sets in. If we stay in His presence confusion will cease.
Love and blessings
Janice.
Jody I am so glad that God speaks to us. Sometimes we think it is just our own thoughts but God is speaking to us all the time. Thanks so much for sharing this.

"I have gone before,
preparing a place for you
A place to lay your weary head
and all your toils and troubles bring"...What comforting words those are! If we listen to the right voice, we hear comfort. If we listen to the wrong voice, we hear confusion.... Good words, Jody. Thanks for sharing. God bless you. .. Helen
