COT: COT: Listening/Hearing
At a men’s get to together at church this week, the focus was on listening.
How fruitful is your listening. With your wife, kids, at work, family, and with the Lord. Are you listening in order to get your next word in? Are you thinking about what you’re going to say rather than really listening? Are you focused on you or on the one speaking and what they are saying?

”But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”“
‭‭Mark‬ ‭4‬:‭20‬ ‭ESV‬‬
bible.com/bible/59/mrk.4.20.ESV

The exercise at church was to partner up, and one person just speak for 5 minutes, and the other listen, with no words the whole time. The topic was to discuss a challenge/issue we are dealing with and also to share a hope and prayer that we have. He got this from someone else, and in their exercise, the challenge was for 20 minutes.
I’ve not done it yet, and I’ll accept some accountability here, but I want to do this exercise, or some variation with my wife. Talking and being focused on listening is something we need to improve, so I’ll encourage you to do the same with your wife or someone else in your life.

COT:

Mark 1:35
– On the heels of beginning His ministry (healing many the night before), Jesus got up before the day began, went to a desolate place, and prayed.
– With his ministry starting, excitement, much productivity to be had, he left to spend time with His Father. His most productive time.
– When is the last time we’ve went away to be alone with Jesus? Do we have regular times we schedule to pursue the Lord in this way?
