Listen

Come, let us worship and bow down. Let us kneel before the Lord our maker, for he is our God. We are the people he watches over, the flock under his care. If only you would listen to his voice today! Psalm 95: 6-7 NLT

God doesn't just watch over you, great individual that you are. God watches over us all. God watches us as a flock of sheep. God oversees us a group. God watches over all God's people.

Just as the sheep know the shepherds voice, we should know God's voice. Yet, how often are we really listening?

I have been trying to listen to God lately. In fact, God has told me to trust. I find myself repeating – sometimes more than once – trust God. But when I do trust God, I find myself wanting to worship God. I discover that it is only natural to bow down and kneel before God when my trust is fully founded.

Are you listening to God's voice? What would it take for you to listen for God' s voice this very day?

God, help me to listen for your voice and to follow you. In Jesus' name. Amen.
