Ephesians 4:32 (NKJV) 32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Wow! I had to read this over and over one day to actually let it penetrate. I was feeling pretty upset about some things that were taking place. As I read this scripture, each time it got louder and louder. I could feel myself getting calmer and calmer as I let it sink in.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

You see, unless we let God’s word speak to us, or penetrate into our very being,\u00a0it can’t help us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

For instance, has anyone ever been speaking to us, and we are \u00a0looking right at them and nodding our heads like we are hearing them, but we miss what they are saying? We have NO clue what they just said. If they ever asked us to repeat it back, we would be in trouble and have to\u00a0ask them, “wait, could you say that again?”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That’s not listening.\u00a0That’s thinking of what we want to do or say next and totally not hearing that person, just nodding away.<\/p>\n

We can do this at times when we read God’s word. Or when listening to a preacher, priest or any type of minister. We can be nodding our heads, saying yes and amen, while all the time having other thoughts or agendas running through our head.<\/p>\n

To hear what God is saying we need to shut out everything, including our own thoughts.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

As I heard this go through my head and let it penetrate my heart, it helped me greatly. It calmed me right down and helped me to move on. These words, “be kind, tenderhearted and forgiving”, spoke to me very clearly and changed my attitude\u00a0quickly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

How many of us feel\u00a0STUCK\u00a0today? That’s an awful feeling when we know freedom. Compared to the feeling of being free, feeling stuck sticks out like a sore thumb.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To change this stuck feeling, we must let God’s\u00a0word penetrate. Maybe for you it’s not this verse. It may be something totally different. But listen, let it penetrate and help you at this time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Psalm 46:1 (NKJV) 46 God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
