The Communicator’s Office is Open

The network TV drama, West Wing, spanned the years 1999-2006. It is still popular today because of its excellent casting, sparkling dialogue, and bold, engaging storylines. I disagree with its political and idealogical bent, but I love the show for the above reasons. 

One episode began with a character going to her desk in the early morning, picking up the phone before she had even taken off her coat, and saying, “The communications office is open.” 

I thought of that the other day as I opened my Bible for morning devotion time. We don’t have to worry about the communication office being open; the Communicator “never slumbers or sleeps.” (Psalm 121:4) As my dear brother-in-Christ, Marshall, says, “Isn’t that good news?”

Yup! It’s wonderful to know, even as we sit with bleary eyes waiting for our coffee to brew, God is eager to hear from us.

“Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear.” (Isaiah 65:24)

I pray this short post encourages you this day.

Leaning in and pressing on.
