I was feeling bad that I hadn't gotten around to reading your post yet, but now I see it was God's timing that I should read it now when I can truly hear it, rather than several days ago when it would have been static. Ahhh! We worship and amazing God!

The "change the tape" image is something I will carry with me after reading this for when my mind, or better yet my heart, needs to be changed or reversed. Change is so hard, but doable if God's on our side.
