My daughter has told me at least three times in the last year, “Nobody listens to you Mom.” Is this true? Are my words airborne without a landing ear? I’m not yet sure of that answer.
But those words, “Nobody listens,” do give me pause. Not a pregnant pause. Not a musical pause, but a real pause, a quieting of my teeth. A silencing of my voice. Do I feel it? I do!
I wonder if I’ve done it to others; silenced them, talked over them, dismissed them with a look or a nod or a shrug?
God always listens…He loves to hear your voice!
