Why the silence, God?

Dear God,

Seriously.  I need you.  I get it.  I've worked my whole life serving myself, the gods of sex and drugs, the gods of hedonism, and that's not really working for me.  I see you.  I have miracles in my life for which I am so thankful.  I can see you've been incredibly kind, shown me incredible mercy, but ... I don't hear you.

Aren't we supposed to have a relationship?  More than one I might have with a distant, though merciful, king?  How are we supposed to communicate, when you don't talk?

~Jon



PS.  If your first thought is to post scripture about sheep knowing his voice, go away.  I don't need any help from the self-righteous and arrogant.  If you can relate, please feel free to say so.
