C.S.Lewis said,'God whispers to us in our pleasures,speaks in our conscience,but shouts in our pains;it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world'.There are many voices speaking to us,false religions,politicians, scientist,entertainers,there are many court jesters,experts on every subject under the sun,an example is Sports Psychologist.But the most important voice of all is the voice of God,our Saviour said,'Whoever has ears,let him hear'.C.S.Lewis is right that when it comes to God the world is deaf, I add ,'stone deaf'.There are countries that ban the Bible,and imprison people who proclaim the word of God.An example of that is Iran were three Christian women have been sentenced to long terms in prison,one is pregnant,that doesn't matter to them,I understand why they do these thing,for faith comes by hearing the word of God,(Romans 10 v17)One commentator writes ,'We should listen to the word of God like our lives depend on it, because it does,for it relates to our eternal life and life here and now'.
'Are you listening? '
