2 Tim.3
Pious people who defend themselves who act like they are serving God but have turned their back on God's power.  This is a warning about the last days. We so often define those out there who act this way...this defines those of us who think we are serving God. It isn't that  people are becoming more evil, it is those of us who think we are God serving that are turning our backs. It is a fair warning.

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.
