I'm not a very good listener. I'm trying to become one. But I'm not. Fact is, I'd more likely talk over someone rather then listen to them.
Maybe I need a hearing aid ...A thing you stick in your ear to make outside noises louder so's you can hear what's going on.
Typically it's older people who need hearing aids, 'cause they've lost some of their range of hearing . I need one so I can hear what people are saying.
I've been thinkin' about this 'cause I burst my ear drum a few weeks ago. I've had to listen a lot closer to people, 'cause my one ear has been pretty much out of commission and I think I've finally realized what people want.
People just wan'a be heard. Just wan'a have someone that they can talk to, not talk at but someone who will receive their concerns and dreams. And a hearing aid would make me listen to people.
So you might be asking yourself, 'where does worship come into this?'
My answer?
'What about listening to God?'
Maybe all of us need a hearing aid.
