Daily Devotion - Episode 94 - Are You Listening


Listen Later

Well, it's official sports fans, I don't hear as well as I used to. I even have a doctor's note to prove it. Now, when I'm accused of not listening, I can confidently say, "I'm listening, but I can't hear you," I have a note! Two weeks from now when I have my new hearing aids, that will no longer be an excuse for me.

Actually, I'm really looking forward to hearing all that I've been missing; hearing loss can be very isolating. Rather than continually asking, "What did you say?" I tend to withdraw, smile, nod my head and wonder what was being said.

Speaking to the Jews in Jerusalem, Jesus encountered a different kind of hearing loss. His audience heard his words, but did not believe or receive what he was telling them.

Read John 10:1-18


Jesus' words divided the crowd, some thought he was demon possessed, others thought he was insane and asked, "Why listen to him?" Still others pointed out the miracles he'd performed and said his words were not those of someone possessed by demons. God's Word can divide as we learn from scripture.

Are you listening?

Today, as you consider God’s Word, as you believe in Christ Jesus, your Savior, your risen Lord, rejoice that you are at peace with God, that you are indeed, a redeemed, forgiven child of God.
