The visiting hour
Some of us are familiar with visiting hours in the hospital setting while some of us are not. I have seen hospital sign boards informing the general public of their visiting hours and of course,the visiting hour does not last long. It usually is not more than an hour in a day but the generous ones can extend it to two hours.
I guess there are other instituitions that have visiting hours if not a visiting day (like I used to have while in secondary school or what some would call high school). In these instituitions, as well as the hospital, any visit aside the stipulated hour was not permitted or encouraged.
Thankfully, we have a Father who doesn’t give us a visiting day or hour. We can call upon Him anytime and He will answer. He is never angry wether we call Him in the middle of the night or at the break of dawn. Unlike me. I really don’t attend to midnight phone calls. It either has to be scheduled or it is an emergency, a matter of life and death. He is ever ready to hear us and listen. He hears when we call. What an amazing Father.
Unfortunately,while He has not given us the ‘visiting hour’ or ‘visiting day’,humans have decided to give Him one. Some of us only meet Him on Sundays. Like “Hey God! It’s good to see you and hear you today. See you next week.” While some of us just make our visiting hour when we have the time to. And it’s probably just two minutes or so. Some people’s visiting hour is when they are in urgent need of  something or when in a dilemma.
I want to encourage us to relate with Him better. Visit Him often. Create a journal.His loving arms are always open wide. You’ll discover that you have been limiting yourself all the while. Or should I say cheating yourself?
Experience Him more.
Much love. Ciao.
