The guy who wrote this song to God is speaking a very plain truth. He is answering the question that I ask all the time, when I ask God to speak to me. So often I say things like, why can’t I hear God, why doesn’t God guide me? This guy obviously talks to God, and he has heard from God, this guy has taken the time to build a relationship with God. Remember that first day at school, how strange it seemed and how little you knew everyone. Remember that first time in college when conversations seemed all a little bit short. Now of course you bundle into school or college and just start yacking to the first mate that turns up. There are no longer awkward silences and you have learned all the little strange ways that your mates speak. Now you have built relationships with your mates because you speak to them every day. It’s not that I or you, can’t hear from God. It’s not that anyone else is super spiritual and can hear better from God. God wants to talk to all of us, if only we would take the time to speak to him and build a relationship. If we speak to God everyday like we do our mates then we will stop having awkward silences, and we will learn all the little strange ways that God speaks to us.
