Hearing God
If you find yourself in a position where you can honestly say, “God has never spoken to me,” then you might ask yourself, Why should God speak to me? What am I doing in life that would make speaking to me a reasonable thing for him to do? Are we in business together in life? Or am I in business just for myself, trying to “use a little God” to advance my projects?
When our lives are devoted to the will of God, he has reason to speak to us. If our lives are not devoted to his purposes, he may still speak to us and even use us for his purposes if we are strategically placed. After all, we are his creatures, no matter how mis-guided or rebellious. But for a willing walk in conscious, loving cooperation with God, we must come to grips with the issue What are we living for?
