How often do we hear instructions given to us but we don't listen well? Listening can bring great benefits. Not listening can cost us dearly. The scriptures tell us hundreds of times to listen, hear, hearken, obey. God, like a loving parent, wants us to pay attention, learn and obey. Our understanding of what God tells us is demonstrated by our obedience to what God tells us to do and how we live. This listening, comprehension, obedience builds a bond and relationship with God.
