Okay, I admit it....I hate to be ignored. I am more than sure that Allen can testify to that fact. I know it drives him crazy that I require an answer at all times. We have had more than one argument about this topic. I just think it is respectful to answer when spoken to.
I just want to know that I am being heard. I guess it's because I hate to be ignored that I make Benjamin answer me--at all times. Just wait little Georgia-Kate....your time is coming to answer me. I completely understand why my Mom always said to us "Answer me when I am talking to you.". I'm sure I gave an answered as I rolled my eyes.
A few nights ago, as I read my bible--it hit me. It hit me- like a ton of bricks. I am hypocritical when I ignore God. And I do ignore Him, at times. It's embarrassing that I throw my biggest pet peeve upon my Father and Redeemer. I ignore by disobeying, by not spending time in the Word or by not spending real time in prayer.
I know this post is heavier than my "normal" cutesy story about Benjamin or story about our travels. I just thought I might make a change and stop ignoring God if I words to my new revelation.

I love hearing people confess.
1. It helps me realize I'm not the only one who disobeys God.
2. In a world where we see a lot of wrong in others it is just nice to hear us admit when we are wrong.
Thanks for the post and as great as it is...nothing compares to the child singing at the end of your Michael W. Smith song. Thats right I'm making fun of Michael W. Smith:)
Hey! Thanks for the word! I think that is something we all struggle with. :)
