Listening to God is hard

Ok, maybe listening to God, in truth is not hard. But when you've had years of formats for how you approach and listen to him...or formulas for accessing God etc...I'm only exaggerating a little...it seems hard. As of late in my reading and just in everyday heart I've been trying to live out what it means to seek first the kingdom of God & especially just to listen. To spend a little more time in solitude and just opening myself to as well as waiting on God. I confess I'm often walking away feeling like there's more. Still, I wait. I confess, I'm the kind of person that wants the quick answer. That wants to hear yesterday. I hate to wait. Still, God's taught me through some not so easy lessons that waiting is a prerequisite for growth, maturity, and the faith that changes life. And so, again, I choose to wait.
