Philip Yancey writes of a girl raised by deaf parents. When she desired to shut them out of her life, she would simply close her eyes.
Of course, this action would make her parents feel angry; they could only communicate with her through signing.
Yancey concluded, “As I think of that young girl, her eyelids sealed tight against the frantic hand motions of her parents, I get a picture of how God must feel when I shut him out.”
Ouch! How many times do I shut God out?
