When I call on God, I am not trying to get his attention and I am not trying to get Him to notice me. In all this my journey with Him two questions usually comes to my mind, they are; am I paying attention to him or am I trying to get his attention? Patience Johnson
About This Quote

When one is spiritual, they are aware of the presence of God within their heart. When you call on God, you are not forcing Him to listen to you. You are simply opening yourself up to the universal energy that is present in all things. The great thing about this is that it is not about getting God’s attention. You will never get Him to listen to you if you cannot listen to Him first.
