Take Note And Behave Accordingly

Just for today I will take note of one helpful thing God is saying to me and seek to behave accordingly.

What is God saying to me and how can I know it is God speaking?  God speaks to us through the Scriptures.  Before we begin to read the Bible we should pray that God will help us hear what He wants to share with us.  We can expect a phrase or sentence in what we are reading to encourage or challenge us. This is God’s way of bringing to our attention something He wants to teach us. 

God reveals Himself to us through Jesus, so it’s important to regularly look at what Jesus said and did. 

Our natural environment is full of ways that God speaks to us.  While out walking, it doesn’t take long before our eyes are drawn to greater things than ourselves as we observe life in our surroundings of land, sea, and sky.  We can simply ask God, “What are You teaching me through what I am observing right now?” 

God speaks to us through others, through music we hear or sing, and through circumstances as they unfold.  If our hearts are open and we are willing to take note, God is willing to teach us more about Himself and about His creation. 

Prayer: Heavenly Father, Open my eyes and ears and heart to recognize when You are speaking to me. Help me learn what truth is and what is useful for correcting my errors.  Amen
