Listening to God

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me”
-John 10:27-

Our Father, who art in Heaven:

We ask that you will forgive us for our sins.  Create in us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us.  We have had a challenging time hearing and listening to your voice.  We have not taken the moment out of our busy schedules to hear and listen to what you have to say.  Because we have not taken anytime from our busy schedules to spend time with you, and hear and listen to you, we have become frustrated with the challenges and chaos we deal with daily.  God please forgive us, because you have told us in your word that your sheep hear your voice, and you know them, and they follow you.  We are your sheep, and we want to hear your voice.  The day we hear (listen) your voice, we don’t want our hearts to be hardened.  You often hear our cry, when we’re in trouble, and you listen to our pleas.  So today Lord, we will stop to hear your voice, and listen to your guidance and direction, and obey you.  We will give attention to your voice, and stop and wait to hear what you have to say to us.  We will not rush through the time we spend with you, and not clearly hear you.  But today Lord, we hear you. Speak for your servants are listening.

Your Servants
