Our lives are cluttered with so much noise. Music and advertisements are played in nearly every setting and place we find ourselves. Whenever we settle in our cars or homes, so often recorded music is played. Now, it seems that a fashionable piece of jewelry is an ever present earplug for either a phone or a MP3 player.
With all the noise polluting our lives, it is hard to listen. The birds announcing the coming sunrise; the sound of the wind on the trees; children laughing and playing; the tender words of a friend in need all seem to be obscured and overwhelmed by the cacophony of noise and clatter that surround us each and every moment of our days.
Today, take time to listen. Listen to the simple, ordinary sounds of life. Maybe you might even hear the still, small voice of God.
