Listening
July 9, 2021
Our world has changed to communication through zoom, Skype, texts, and more. I see that many think they have much to say and offer. However, there seems to me to be a void in listening. Jesus listened even though he knew what was in each person he encountered.
Our culture encourages us to think we have all strength and solutions within us. Not so. Proverbs 15:22 Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed.
To listen to another words takes time and attentiveness. It requires that we contemplate, what we’re hearing to our hearts leaning.
Listen to more than one person, and focus in prayer on what God tells us through his word. Success through good counsel.
