Listen, Go, and Do.

And the Lord said to him, "Get up and go to the street called Straight, and
inquire at the house of Judas for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is
praying." (Acts 9:11)

Listening and Speaking

"Then He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet that I may speak with you!" As He spoke to me the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet; and I heard Him speaking to me." (Ezekiel 2:1-2)

 Do you listen for Him, for His Spirit? Do you allow the King of Kings to imbue your heart and mind with Life each day? Jesus is present, speaking, whispering, shouting "the whole message of this Life" (Acts 5:20). Above the din of this world's ugliness His Love always speaks beauty and freedom if you have ears to hear it. Do you hear Him?

"But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved." (Romans 10:8-10)

 Will you speak it? Will you allow the King of Kings to use you so that others can see Him? Jesus' desire is that all would hear, that none would perish but all would have eternal life (2 Peter 3:9). Does His Love compel you, beyond your reasoning and all of your Human things, to not allow even one to slip through the cracks? Will you let your life reflect and confess Him whether they listen or not?

"But having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I BELIEVED, THEREFORE I SPOKE," we also believe, therefore we also speak" 2 Corinthians 4:13)

"But you shall speak My words to them whether they listen or not" (Ezekiel 2:7)
