VENT

The house is quiet the darkness of the night is upon us.  The lights are turned off, the doors locked and we are secure in our home.  This is one of my favorite times of day.  It is when my husband and I get to vent.  We discuss what has bothered us, how to solve situations and how not to solve situations.  We go through the discussions of how hard life is when you follow the “do right rule,” (no we haven’t always followed, but now we try to).  It is our time together for us to get rid of our trash from the day so that we can have a good nights rest. 

Do you have trash that has built up in your life?  Has it left a stench?  If so get rid of it.  Vent and get rid of your frustrations and odors that are following you around.

If you don’t have anyone to vent to remember you always have the Lord.  He wants us to come to Him.  Gods door is always open to start a conversation.  We talk He will listen, He will talk and we should listen.  No matter what emotion we are carrying God wants to hear it.  If we are joyful tell Him if we are upset tell Him.  Trust me He can handle any emotion we are having.  God is a personal God.  He is a one on one.  He wants for us to come to Him.  This communication with Him strengthens our relationship with Him. 

Even though the discussions with my husband are great going to the Lord is what we should do.  The Lord is a safe haven a nonjudgmental place to speak.  Start venting He wants to hear you his ears are open waiting for you to speak.  Whether good or bad He wants us to rely on Him. 

Psalm 50:15New International Version (NIV)

15 

and call on me in the day of trouble;

    I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”
