Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. [Psalm 5:3 (NLT)]

I expect God to listen to me, but do I listen to him?
When he calls, do I answer?
When he speaks, do I hear?
When he commands, do I obey?
Perhaps it’s time to remember why He gave me two ears and only one mouth!

We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak. [Epictetus]

Hear my prayer, O Lord; listen to my plea! Answer me because you are faithful and righteous. [Psalm 143:1 (NLT)]
