You Won’t Hear God If You’re Full Of Yourself
Most of us unconsciously believe that God speaks only to those who are mature and pure. The trouble is, positive self-talk forms barriers to hearing God: he loves the broken-hearted.
The God of Scripture is attracted to the humble, and it is the humble he loves to raise up. That’s why Jesus invites the broken-hearted: “Come to me all who are weak and heavy-burdened.”
We can approach God full and walk away empty; or we approach him empty—no excuses and no self-esteem—and walk away full.
