Do you feel like you're carrying the weight of the world, worrying about everything but praying about nothing? Scripture reminds us that to experience God’s peace and have less anxiety, we need more prayer—but what if prayer isn’t just talking? What if it’s about listening just as much as speaking?

Often, our prayer lives are filled with requests, complaints, and noise, leaving little room for silence to hear God’s voice. What if instead of asking, “What are you praying for?” we started asking, “What are you listening for?” Your ability to hear God impacts your ability to respond. It’s more crucial than your career, education, or any plans you’ve made for the future. The greatest factor in your life isn’t your goals but your ability to hear and obey.

Sometimes, hearing feels challenging—like silence when guidance is needed most. God’s voice comes through scripture, people, dreams, open doors, and even pain. Each method offers guidance, brings growth, and invites a deeper sense of purpose. Truly hearing requires creating space in life, silencing distractions, and being attentive to the quiet whispers that bring clarity and direction.
