God when the pain is gone, will I still be able to rely on myself to come to you for conversation? When I don’t need to come because your voice is the only soothe for the pain, will I still come?
Mark not unless I give you a new pain.
God did you honestly say that?
Yes.
Hi God. It still seems so ridiculous that I can say ‘Hi God’ and you’ll respond.
I will respond. I do. I’m vulnerable to you. There you have it. Now you know. God, the Creator, is vulnerable to you.
God, what now?
Do you want to listen?
Yes.
Then that’s ‘what’s now’. I want you to listen.
I put on the Sea of Galilee music as I journaled.
Lord Jesus, I come to You. Where do You want to meet me today?
Mark, I want to meet you in heaven. Because that is where I live and that is where you live, seated with Me in heavenly places.
Lord, I come. What do You want to show me?

“I have learned so much and have come so far in my communion with the Lord through journaling that I have even gotten visions from the Lord by entering the throne room! Now that is totally amazing to me and I know that's not all God wants to do. Taking your classes has revolutionized my heart and life so much that I will never be the same and that I will not stay the same today that I was yesterday (I am currently 66). Journaling to "Hear God's Voice" has been one awesome, ongoing, strengthening, going from Glory to Glory IN Jesus experience. I just want to say "THANK YOU" Mark and Patti. My life is more blessed and more fulfilled through what God has given you.
Dear Mark,
In Toronto, 2006, you taught a group of us your journaling technique on 'how to hear God's voice.' You stated that if we did this consistently for three months it would change our lives. I complied. Indeed I have been journaling in your manner almost daily ever since and it has been a most most comforting, encouraging and helpful element of my Christian walk. Thank you! Sincerely in Him - Michael Graham
Question from Sally: Hi. I am just wondering if a demon can speak to a person while that person is delivering a prophetic word. Would God not protect the individual who is serving Him at the time of sharing a word?

Question: Can you please shed some light on why I was able to hear God's voice clearly for over 20 years but for the past 5 I have been unable to hear Him? I'm sure you have had this question before and I would be very grateful for your wisdom. Julie
