Listening . . .

. . . I've been doing a lot more of it over the past few days.

While on vacation, some people leave their hearts in San Francisco. While on vacation last week, I left my voice in east Virginia.

Laryngitis is the diagnosis. Waiting it out is the remedy.

So for now, I'm doing a lot more listening than talking. And what I've realized is that usually it's the other way around.

So I'm listening. Listening to my kids, listening to my husband. I'm also listening longer and more carefully to the words of Scripture, as well as to the words of some folks writing books and articles on current events and Christian living.

Maybe when I get my voice back, I'll have some new, interesting things to say.

Blessings,
Janet+
