1
00:00:00,270 --> 00:00:02,790
That's kind of a one-sided friendship, isn't

2
00:00:02,790 --> 00:00:03,010
it?

3
00:00:03,930 --> 00:00:06,730
My wife has a friend who will say

4
00:00:06,730 --> 00:00:08,730
to her, how are you?

5
00:00:09,330 --> 00:00:12,690
And when she says fine, the girl will

6
00:00:12,690 --> 00:00:15,570
say, well, enough talk about you, let's talk

7
00:00:15,570 --> 00:00:16,090
about me.

8
00:00:17,590 --> 00:00:19,330
Well, people like that, it's one-sided.

9
00:00:19,510 --> 00:00:22,110
Well, I thought about this, and I had

10
00:00:22,110 --> 00:00:26,190
to apply this to my quiet time, and

11
00:00:26,190 --> 00:00:27,990
I had to ask myself, is that a

12
00:00:27,990 --> 00:00:30,350
one-sided relationship, where I'm doing all the

13
00:00:30,350 --> 00:00:30,690
talking?

14
00:00:32,470 --> 00:00:33,990
Or do I get in there and do

15
00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:34,530
I listen?

16
00:00:35,830 --> 00:00:37,570
What's my quiet time all about?

17
00:00:37,690 --> 00:00:39,370
Am I going in there with my list

18
00:00:39,370 --> 00:00:42,730
of prayer requests, and I have those lists,

19
00:00:42,830 --> 00:00:44,130
and it's good to have a list, but

20
00:00:44,130 --> 00:00:46,090
is that all my quiet time is, where

21
00:00:46,090 --> 00:00:47,090
I'm doing all the talking?

22
00:00:47,290 --> 00:00:50,310
I'm complaining about this, and I'm griping about

23
00:00:50,310 --> 00:00:52,270
that, and I'm asking Him to bless me

24
00:00:52,270 --> 00:00:54,290
on this, or am I listening?

25
00:00:54,990 --> 00:00:58,890
Be still and know that I am God.

26
00:00:59,290 --> 00:01:01,450
If you want to walk with the creator

27
00:01:01,450 --> 00:01:03,410
of the universe, you not only have to

28
00:01:03,410 --> 00:01:05,610
follow, you have to listen.
