Communication Lines

As many of you know, I work for and run an organization called The Andy Project (www.theandyproject.com).

Many of you also probably know that running an organization like this takes communication...and a great deal of it.

But lately, my team and I have been failing in our communications. Our schedules get busy, our lives go crazy, and we being to drop the ball on all sorts of major projects and assignments...all of us! Trust me, I do it too.

We also being to forget to communicate our plans/ideas to each other. We will get us into this great situation that nobody on the team knows about, and when it rolls around, we are all shocked by it.


And I think this same thing happens between us and God. God is always communication with us, but we tend to fill our lives up with so much "stuff" that isn't even important, and we being to loose that line of communication with him.

It's like if you have ever been on the phone with somebody, and you pull the old "fuzz fuzz...i'm going under a bridge...fuzz fuzz...i can't hear you...fuzz fuzz...what was that" trick. We have all done it.

But that is what we are doing to go...we are choosing to close that line of communication many times...because we fill our lives with our computers and our music and our money and our relationships and all this other "worldly" stuff. By doing so we are cutting that direct line we have to God.


So i just want to challenge all of us to work on opening that line of communication back up.

Take some time this weekend and just spend it with God...He did create you after all!

Dig through the scripture and see what God is telling you...he's always broadcasting...but are you willing to tune to his channel?
