Who Am I Listening To?

God’s words are precious.  He speaks to me words of truth that heal my soul like nothing else can.  Sometimes I get diverted and spend a lot of time listening to what those around me say.  I begin to absorb their opinions, their beliefs, their plans, their desires, their expectations, their frustrations.  When I attune my ears to others’ voices, I can become confused and lose myself, the extraordinary person God made me to be.  I fail to know God fully when I don’t embrace and honor His word before all others. 

Coming to know God is the most important thing I can do in my life.  I will seek Him.  I will attune my ears to His word and my mind to His truth.  

 Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.          Galations 1:10
