God Began to Talk

All my life I have had this passion for singing,not just anywhere, ,,in church.Through my earlier years I had  opportunities to sing in churches, Conventions,parks, everywhere God gave me the chance. Oh,, those are wonderful memories. Yet as time went on I became detached from my calling,I became too involved with my personal life that I forgot the most important thing .God had been my source of happiness ,my everything . singing ,as much as I loved  to do became  less and less part of my Christan life.When at times I would question God ;why so much pain, disappointment ,and unhappiness! He seemed to stay quiet  or at least that's how it felt.Through the years I listen to other Christian singers and although they blessed my life , I couldn't kick off the feeling of emptiness.I've  known God since I was a little girl ,even accepted Jesus as my Savior at an early age.I  had an  experience on healing when I was five years old and knew the power of prayer, but to say I knew God as  I do now,,well,,I didn't. Reading the Word of God  brought me closer to experiencing something so real, that even the way I pray  changed.I began to hear God's voice ; at first I would question him just to make sure . When God begins to talk,there is no mistake about it ! In the Old Testament God spoke to Abraham; he is someone I admire. He was called out of his family into an unknown land. He didn't question God as to where he was going.He waited for a promise twenty something years and his faith was the only thing he had.As I read the Word , HE took me on a ride into understanding the "why of all my pain, failure and  emptiness." I understood one thing among many,,, God gets happy in the mist of our joyful singing ,the praising, exalting His Name.For once my mind was clear and I could see his point of view.In the praising,, all shackles are broken. Two nights ago I sang at some church, I gave my  singing to God Almighty,the One who said: I will be with you always. Something  broke  inside of me,I felt free as I had been so many years ago.I could  feel  his  happiness, God began to talk. That night his power was so great ,I felt it as real as I  breath.Nothing mattered,everything that had happened in the past God took control. I regained my inspiration to sing, HE has given me peace, sweet wonderful peace.
