Incline your ear, and come unto Me:
hear, and your soul shall live.
Isaiah 55:3
Most people live on the surface. They miss the most
astonishing things. They see and yet they do not see.
And the reason is they aren’t really looking.
The same is true about what they hear. They listen
with the outer ear, only. For example, people go to
church, and the Gospel never penetrates beyond the
outer consciousness. That is because people do not
listen with all their faculties. They do not lose themselves
in it.
But when one inclines his ear and hears, listening as
though his life depended upon it, getting every word,
letting it sink into his mind by a deep and powerful
penetration, then the message falls like a healing
potency upon him. Every spiritual disease germ is killed,
and he lives with new health and strength.
