Oh Lord, that I may be a good listener!

Proverbs 8:33. Mark a life of discipline and live wisely; don’t squander your precious life.
34. Blessed the man, blessed the woman, who listens to me, awake and ready for me each morning, alert and responsive as I start my day’s work.
35. When you find me, you find life, real life, to say nothing of God’s good pleasure.
36. But if you wrong me, you damage your very soul; when you reject me, you’re flirting with death.”-“The Message”
