                           Do You Want To Hear?

There has been a misconception going around the body of Christ that I
only speak directly to the spiritual giants or to those who are very 
holy or very mature.  However, this is not the case.  I desire to speak 
to you, child of Mine, regardless of your level of your maturity or growth.

Think about it.  The idea that I would not want to speak directly to you
is absurd.  What father, in the natural, would refuse to speak to his 
children until they reached a certain age or accomplished certain things
with their lives?  What father would expect his children to know what to 
do or what he desires -- but would refuse to talk to them about it?  Even 
the most carnal of fathers knows how to communicate with his children and 
desires to do so.  So why would you think that I would not want to speak 
directly and clearly to you?  You are My child and I love you dearly. I 
am a good Father, and I delight to speak directly to My children.  You 
are My child and I want to speak to you.

Child of Mine, I desire to teach you to recognize and discern My voice 
clearly.  I do not desire to be obscure.  I do not desire to speak to you
in riddles.  It is not meant to be hard to discern My voice and My will.
The test is not in the discerning of My voice, the test is in the obeying 
once you have discerned it.

I desire to speak to you about the big things and about the small things
and occasionally about nothing at all -- just to be in communication and
intimacy together.  I have more to say to you -- directly and personally --
than you can imagine.  If you ask Me to, I will teach you how to discern
and recognize My voice.  Child, it will be a process.  I am a faithful
and a patient teacher.  I will not become angry as you make mistakes in
hearing during the learning process.  I will not disqualify you.  Rather
I will reveal Myself to you.  I will teach you of Myself.  I will give
you increased clarity of hearing.  I will teach you to recognize My
voice and I will speak to you often.

Child of Mine, just ask Me and I will do this for you.  I desire to teach 
you to know My voice.  I love you dearly and I desire to speak to you on 
a regular and intimate basis.
