Always
give good heed to the Word of God, whether you hear or read it in private or
hearken to it when publicly preached. Listen with attention and reverence, seek
to profit by it, and do not let the precious words fall unheeded but receive
them into your heart.
Listen with attention... That's the hard part for me. My attention span often does not amount to much...
ReplyDeleteIt is constant work for me. I know when I've listened well.
DeleteListening is hard work, hearing even more so.
DeleteIs the tree hearing or is the rock listening?
I'm not sure. I keep listening for signs of it.
DeleteSo glad it's not about success, but as Henri said it's the act of coming back again and again to a Beloved ,Faithful God....
