The LORD was with Samuel as he grew up, and he let none of Samuel’s words fall to the ground. (1 Samuel 3:19 NIV)Words fall to the ground,
those meant for me to hear,
left to languish, wither, die.
I sit, planning my own words
as others speak, leaving wasted
words I should have heard.
You words hold so much weight. Good advice, listen with the intent to hear, not retort.

I have so often been guilty of doing just that.
Praise God that he continues to work with us.
