Does anybody hear me?

When I call, give me answers. God, take my side!..........hear me!---Psalm 4:1 MSG

Have you ever felt like no one was listening? They just don't get it...Every time we find ourselves in hard times this phenomenon happens. We tell everyone just how bad things are and just how much pain we're really in, and they seem to just nod and smile; sometimes we get a "I completely understand." Everything in us shouts NO!!! I don't think that you do!!!  So we go to the next person and repeat this process, somehow hoping that we can successfully express the pain we are experiencing, but again we fail to get the appropriate response. 

We go to God and shout PLEASE GIVE ME ANSWERS!!!! nothing.....(the sound of crickets serenading you in the silence) DOES ANYBODY HEAR ME???!!!! 

Then you read down a couple of verses....

Look at this: look Who got picked by God! He listens the split second I call to him.  Complain if you must, but don't lash out. Keep your mouth shut, and let your heart do the talking. Build your case before God and wait for his verdict...verses 3-5

...and wait
