Learning to Listen

“How do we hear the voice of God?” If we want to hear the voice of God, we must learn to listen! Fortunately, spiritual listening skills can be developed! Samuel was in the Presence of God when he first heard Him speak. Like so many of us, he had to learn that it was God who was speaking. But listening, as difficult as it is, is actually easier that what may follow. What if God asks us to do something difficult? Are we ready to listen?

TALK ABOUT IT - Questions to GROW through with family, friends, & myself.

1. Would my friends colleagues consider me a good listener? What skills do good listeners have?

2. Do I have someone for spiritual guidance? How can they help me discern the voice of God?

3. How can I develop my spiritual listening skills to hear God's voice more clearly?

4. If God spoke to me, would I be ready to listen and obey like Samuel did?

5. PRAYER: “Father, help me to listen for your voice and obey your words.”
