Hear and Repeat

I get asked this a lot... "How do you hear from God?"

And for me, it's many ways!
I hear in Him through His Word
I hear Him during my prayer time.
I hear Him in nature.
I hear Him through music.
I hear Him in the middle of the night when I sleep.
I hear Him in conversations with other believers.

If we allow ourselves enough stillness and create a discipline of leaning in close, we can hear Him anywhere!

Most of the time, for me, it's just an impression I get. An overwhelming feeling that comes to me. A repeated confirmation about something I've been praying for.

And all followers of Jesus have the ability to hear from God for themselves.

But in addition to having the ability to hear, we also have an obligation to repeat.
Hear from God, and REPEAT what He says.

Jesus came to reveal the Father (John 17:26, "I have revealed you to them, and I will continue to do so. Then Your love will for me will be in them, and I will be in them.")

We have an ability and obligation.
Live to hear from God and reveal Jesus to the world around us!

Our job is to learn all we can about the goodness of God, so that we can tell His story wherever we go.

My prayer is this: that God would increase my ability AND my passion to hear His voice and repeat His profound goodness to all I encounter.
