This past week I had the opportunity to experience God in something small. I say small because the time that it took to relieve some inner anxiety was about 20 minutes. I had allowed an issue to bother me for so long that when someone finally listened to me it was as if a burden had been lifted. What I learned is that sometime we simply need to take the time to listen to others. This is a small task but can have tremendous rewards.
While I know the individual who listened did not necessarily agree with me, the fact that she listened expressed an outward grace that others had not allowed. In that moment, I found myself not only relieving the tension but I also heard another side of the story.
Take time to listen. You may never realize the impact it may have.
