Listening Carefully

How do you hear God’s voice? Sometimes we hear God in bold, miraculous ways, and other times, we hear God in the still, small voice. The message of Pentecost is that the Holy Spirit dwells within us and speaks to us constantly. Learning to listen is difficult, but when we do, our hearts are opened to God at work in us and in the world around us. Ask God to speak clearly to you this week, and take the time to listen with care and thoughtfulness.
