Pay Attention !

when I sigh....

Psalm 5:1 right off the bat, David says.

"Lord, listen to my words. Pay attention when  I sigh."

No humbling penitent worshipful words...insistent and persistent and oh so personal.
 Listen up...when I sigh.

These words  resonate with me, but somehow can't see myself praying like that. Demanding the ear of God to the breath of my emotion.

The sigh, the silent escape of sorrow, stress, worry, anxiety that is the audible sound of our soul. The symptom of so much more.

Maybe we can be so bold
        maybe we can be so sure
                that our very sigh's are heard.

I sure hope He hears our sighs! Sometimes that all I can get out thats anything close to audible. As for insisting He hears them?.. I hadn't thought of that before. Another good post to ponder on. Thanx.
