Many of us suffer from an acronym called S.A.D.D. - Spiritual Attention Deficit Disorder. We wonder if God hears us when the correct question should be: are we listening. This message contains insight into three areas: Listen, obey and see the rewards. We hear God best through prayer and prayer is a two-way street. We pray but we need to be silent and hear His voice - His answer. A story is related about Stanley and what happened to him because he never learned to listen. As you learn to listen you must also learn to obey. If we hear but don't obey His instructions the whole matter of truly listening is defeated. You will enjoy Pastor Wayne's letter to his daughter called "Tuning In". And then there's the story of Mike - comical in some aspects but it shines a light on what true listening is all about. As you listen and obey you will be soon become the recipients of God's blessings - His rewards. You will receive God's promises in success, security and strength.
God is speaking to us all the time. The question is: are we listening? The story of two sisters, Mary and Martha, tells us how one listened and one busied herself with less important matters. This message gives insight into the art of "listening".
