Today’s Scripture: Mark 4:3 ESV: “Listen! A sower went out to sow.
Jesus says Listen! Yes, that is an exclamation point and I struggle to write the words “I Listen” but this is an affirmation of who I hope to be in Christ and not necessarily where I am. We just need to receive the Word of God and sow them.
As we sow, Jesus is teaching us what will happen. Holy Spirit please give us the ears to hear and the seeds to sow. Jesus taught and Jesus still teaches. Do we hear it? Do we act on what we hear?
“Consider carefully what you hear,” he continued. “With the measure you use, it will be measured to you–and even more. Mark 4:24 NIV
Did you hear that? Listen closely He is speaking. What will we do with what we hear? In the measure we act upon what we hear we will be given more. Are you listening?
Today’s Prayer: Jesus thank You for speaking and teaching me. Prosper in me Father God that I will bear the fruit You intended. Help me to hear what I am able to hear Jesus. Strengthen and instruct me to act and do what You call me to do. Thank You for opening my eyes and my ears and refreshing me. I find calm and confidence in You. I am sowing the seeds I have and I am listening. Amen
