Listening is Simple But Hard

Today’s Responsorial Psalm from the Mass states,  “Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.” (John 6:68)

This sounds beautiful but what does it mean? Hearing Jesus’ words in the Bible- is that what it means? Or, is it even possible to hear God’s voice today, in 2021?

To the latter, I say yes. If you dispose yourself to hearing God’s voice (i.e. during your prayer time) and then ask God something, He will likely respond.

It can go something like this, “Lord, what word do I need to hear today? Can you tell me?”

Then, close your eyes, sit and just listen. God will do the rest.
