CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD
We need to see prayer and Bible study as two sides of a good conversation. You would find it strange if your good friend did all the talking and never listened to your thoughts or opinions. If a husband talks to his wife but never listens to her, is that a healthy marriage? We don’t want to be guilty of something like that in our fellowship with God. As in any good relationship, closeness with the Lord is built through a powerful, honest, on-going, two-sided conversation. In prayer we talk to God and in Bible Study we hear from God. It’s a conversation! “So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.” (Romans 10:17)
