Someone once said, “Being heard is so close to being loved that for the average person, they are almost indistinguishable.” I think the person who spoke those words learned what Jesus knew a long time ago and modelled so well in the Gospels: when you listen, you care. Jesus listened to a man who would only speak to him under the cover of darkness (John 3). Jesus listened to a woman at a well in the middle of nowhere (John 4). Jesus listened to two grieving sisters before he did anything (John 11). Jesus listened because he knew that the simple act of listening was a blessing. Because when we listen, we show we care. Join us as we explore the second practice of our Everyday Rhythms, the “L” practice in the word BLESS, and discover what happens when we listen.
