Listening to Jesus

We all pray. We all pray in different ways. It is our way of talking to God or Jesus. When I pray I talk to God or Jesus like he is right there in the room with me. No matter how we do it God and Jesus hear us. 

Do you ever take the time to listen? I mean really listen. Often times when we pray we expect an immediate answer to our prayers. A quick fix if you will. That is not what God does at all. He gives us the answer that he knows is best for us in his own time. 

I use to be impatient about hearing an answer from God. I would get so mad when I didn't hear from him or it was not the answer that I wanted. I have learned to change. I have learned to listen.

There are times when I just go to God and say I am listen when you are ready to answer. Often times I hear from God at times when I least expect it. One night I was sleeping and God woke me up from a dead sleep to tell me an answer. 

I have been driving down the road and got a answer. Sometimes God stops me in my tracks to tell me an answer. He may even use people in your life to give you an answer. 

We need to learn to take time to listen for the voice of God to speak. If we do that we will hear him more. We will get more answers to our prayers. 

I know people that have never heard God's voice. I suspect that since they never heard God's voice that they never have had their prayers answered. 

I think that it is faith that helps us to hear God's voice. The more faith that we have the more that we will hear God's voice. Take time to hear God's voice so that you can see your prayers answered.
