“One of the best hearing aids a man can have is an attentive wife.” Groucho Marx

Before they call I will answer…Is.65.24 ESV

There is something special when two people have lived so long with one another that they anticipate each other’s needs and wants before a word is said. Years of attentiveness create this beautiful interaction. It is humbling to be known and served by another. Our Father knows each of us well beyond the understanding our closest companion and He anticipates all that we could ever want or need. His attentiveness to us is expressed in the smallest detail before we call to Him. Does it not astound and humble the soul to realize that the Lord is intimately acquainted with our most personal preferences. He knows my favorite food, song, color, movie, my favorite time of the day, most cherished memory, number one past time, and all that delights my heart. There is nothing we may ask of God that He doesn’t already appreciate-no detail beyond His attention. Would it not also be beautiful if we gave ourselves each day to all that delights His heart and that He would find us doing it even before He asked? 2/10/2009 Conversations Within ts
