It is very easy in life to get so caught up in our own world that we can’t hear or even see what is before us. Satan wants to cloud our vision and to restrict our hearing to the point that we become stuck in the fog rather than learning to trust in God to guide us through. Jesus tells us in Mark 10:15, “Assuredly, I say to you , whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.”
The Lord teaches us throughout the Holy Bible to stay humble as a child and to be wise in our steps as we mature. There is a big difference between a child and an adult. For a young child is alert to their surroundings and listens to everything around them while the adults often become restricted in life because they fail to think that they already know it all or they just don’t have the time to listen.
The Lord teaches us to test all things as we mature in the Word of God and to always be alert. For we never know the day nor the hour of Christ return and wouldn’t it be sad to miss something that God has placed right before us to help us along the Way? I challenge you today to begin to listen as that child of God and be wise in your steps to not fall to deception. It is in our nature to follow what we see but if we don’t know how to truly listen then how do we truly show that we believe?
