Listening to Jesus

Three of Jesus’ disciples witness an extraordinary event on a mountain. Jesus external appearance changes to reflect the wonder and light of his inner reality. Today’s verse records the words they heard. God invites them, and us, to know who Jesus is and to listen to his words.

Questions

  • What does Jesus mean to you?
  • What makes him special, what makes him worth listening to?
  • How do we listen to him today?
  • What might that mean in your life?

Challenges

  • Take time today to reflect the difference the words of Jesus have made to your life.
  • Pray that through our lives, Jesus’ words will make a difference to our communities.

Some years ago I heard a preacher describe leaving junk from our lives in the dustbin at the foot of the cross, and on its lid is a sign ‘NO FISHING’. We so easily take something to Jesus, but are tempted to go back over the same ground again. Don’t take back what you have handed over to The Lord.
