My Daily Habit of Listening

Daily writing prompt
What are your daily habits?

I love spiritual pioneering–
Listening, hearing, and filtering
The meditations within my heart,
Sorting and savoring those from God–
Silencing those from evil or myself.
Great peace and wisdom come from thinking
When I focus on cultivating
God’s thoughts that bring insight and delight.
They are so much higher than my own.
Perhaps it’s time to begin clearing
The distractions from your mind and heart.
Do some attitude engineering.
Open your eyes and begin peering
At the living resurrected Christ.
Soon you will be hearing Him clearly–
The fruit of the Spirit appearing.
The hosts of Heaven will be cheering
And your eyes will be often tearing.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
