a couple weeks ago i wrote an entry 'speeding through life'. to recap you on it, i challenged myself to go the speed limit ALL THE TIME. monday morning (after making this challenge) i was driving to work and was running super late and there is a section of my drive that the speed limit is 30 mph, but everyone normally goes like 40, but i went 30 that morning. and you know who was waiting at that corner? a cop with a radar gun! he stopped my car and told me to proceed and pulled the car behind me over. ANY other morning i would have been speeding, so i truly believe that God honors our random attempts to get closer to him.
this brings me to this week's challenge. in church the topic was prayer and being more of a listener than a talker when we spend time with God. while trying to fit more quiet times into my schedule i thought, i spend a lot of time in my car, i need to drive in silence for the week. so this week i will not play a cd or turn on the radio while running around nashville (which anyone who knows me will be very difficult). but i do hope for some great conversation, especially listening with my amazing God this week :)
