Open your mind and heart to God’s presence and guidance.
Scripture:
Matthew 13:31-33
Focus Verse:
“The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of all seeds, but when it is grown it is the greatest of shrubs” (vs. 31, 32).
Listening to God:
”You tend to despise small things. This is a mistake. The idea that nothing is worth anything unless it is big is one of the Adversary’s lies. This false idea keeps you discouraged and hampers my ability to work through you. When you engage faithfully in the small things I call you to do, I use them for my larger purposes. A word or two spoken at my urging can change a person’s life. A small gift of time or attention can rescue someone from hopelessness. You may not always see the results, but trust me to use your small faithfulness to bring in my kingdom.”
Listen in silence. Quiet your mind by letting go of sounds and thoughts as they occur, seeking a silent space for God’s word to you.
