All The Noise

Backing out of our garage is new to me. We didn’t have a garage before.

As soon as I put my car in reverse, the noise begins. All the beeping and alarms are alerting me that I am close to other things.

I know I am.

It seems to get louder and louder and it can feel a bit overwhelming.

I have learned to tune it out, at least somewhat.

The other day I was pondering this.

“What if,” I thought. “I teach myself to tune out this noise and ignore it when it is warning me about some real danger?”

The next thought that came was to “Pay Attention.”

Our lives can quickly fill up with noise – much of which does not serve us well.

At the same time there could be things screaming loudly at us that desperately need our time and attention, that we are ignoring.

May we have the wisdom to know the difference.

Wow . . .

“Pray and pay attention.”
