Do you hear what I hear????

Good morning!!!! What a wonderful day to be alive in the Lord Jesus
Christ and have a real living God. Well, this week we have been able to
examine our farming abilities, the light, and let's look at Mark 4:24-25.
Referring back to verses 21-23 the light of Jesus' truth is shown to
us, it is not hidden. We may not be able to see or use what Jesus gave
us now. But the longer we study His word and the more we practice
Jesus' teaching, the more the truth will be revealed to us. The truth
is open, clear, and an easy picture to view. Our ability to view this
picture may be clouded, and the only way we can get out of the cloud or
fog is to continue studying His word.
The more we obey, the more we pray, then the clearer God's word (truth)
is on our way. Jesus is testing their listening skills in verses 24 &
25. He says those who listen will understand, and he is not talking
about just listening. This is where Jesus is talking about reverant
listening, be of the word, and able to comprehend the true meaning of
what he is saying. We need to listen AND hear, what does Gods word
say?
Mark 4:24-25 "Then He added, PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU HEAR. THE
CLOSER YOU LISTEN, THE MORE UNDERSTANDING YOU WILL BE GIVEN-AND YOU
WILL RECEIVE EVEN MORE. TO THOSE WHO LISTEN TO MY TEACHING, MORE
UNDERSTANDING WILL BE GIVEN. BUT FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT LISTENING, EVEN
WHAT LITTLE UNDERSTANDING THEY HAVE WILL BE TAKEN AWAY FROM THEM."
So, do you hear what I hear? Are we listening on the same wave
length? Are your ears spiritually tuned? Or are they wordly tuned?
This brings about a song, "DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR?" Love you all,
thanks for reading, have a great weekend. Don't forget church, when we
go it helps us to remember: GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME, AND ALL THE TIME
GOD IS GOOD!
In Christ's Love and Grace
