Are You Listening?

Our pastor often encourages us to listen for God’s voice. In our relationship with God, he said communication goes both ways. If we aren’t hearing from God, we should pay more attention to that still small voice. No, not every thought that goes through our heads is from God, but we should expect to hear from him. Someone once told me they were grumbling inwardly about a contemporary song played at church, when up on the screen with the lyrics popped a scripture they knew was directed to them. They said it made it clear they needed an attitude adjustment. If you feel it might be God speaking, it’s good to write down what you hear right away so you can pray about it later. God can speak to us in many different and sometimes surprising ways. Let’s expect to hear from him!
