We all long to be heard.
Could it be that our longing to be heard points us to a God who listens first?
Reflection and Discussion Questions:
-
What barriers make it hard for you to believe that God listens to your prayers?
-
The Psalms show believers willing to bring their entire hearts to God. What do you struggle to talk to God about?
-
If being quick to listen isn’t just a weird command, but a way to imitate God, how does that change your appreciation for what James has to say?
-
Is it true that we’re starving for someone to listen—really listen—to us? Who could you listen to today?
