Interference



I've been having problems with my Internet service.

It worked, but v  e   r   y   s  l  o  w   l   y.

I checked and rechecked the connections.

I fumed away to myself.

I complained to my husband about it.

Finally he called our Internet provider.

Apparently hearing all the "babies" in the background he asked.......

"Do you have a baby monitor?"

Actually we have two--one for each room with little people in it.

We promptly unplugged them, and our Internet works fine.

It made me think about something tho.

Sometimes when I pray--I feel like the "connection" between my Jesus and I isn't there.

I feel like there is interference.

And just like my baby monitors.

I need to "unplug" my mind from all the stuff around me.

And suddenly the "interference" is gone.

  1. I guess that's why we are told to go into a closet to pray...it closes out all the distractions!

  3. right on! makes me think of what God has been telling me lately about the 'white noise' in my life. If I'm too busy to spend time with Him I can't hear what He is saying. glad you figured it out and it didn't cost $$$ to fix it tho!

  4. I stayed home from church today--alone--and had a time of just that, time with God with no interference. Something rare for a mom! (No baby yet, just not up to the 1-hour drive through the hills.)
