The principal problem in most relationships is lack of communication, should we doubt that this is also the case in a strained relationship with God.

“I said I will confess my sins to you.” Ps.32

I have apologized to You a number of times for the round about way we must communicate. I tell You I want clear communication but I am sure when things are not as clear as they should be, at least to me, it is my fault. I am grateful that I want honest communication between us but then I take silly pride in it, like there is some virtue in sincerity even when I am being sincerely wrong. I know my problem is listening; the wax of selfish concerns has plugged my ears. I can't believe I fly off at the handle because I have made some rash judgment about what You allow. It all stems from being too self-centered. Let me talk honestly with You Father but let me at least be honest with myself. Thanks for being my Friend--for loving me as I am but not leaving me this way. 7/29/2011 Conversations Within ts (Grand Canyon)
