Listening to Jesus - The Rev. Philip DeVaul

 But in our daily lives, when we look for love. Anywhere  in our life,  we are listening to Jesus.  When you look for the love that is present, that surrounds you, in whatever way you are able to find it, when you look for the love that is all around you, when you see that love, you are finding Jesus in your daily life.

And when you follow that love, you are listening to Jesus.  Listening to Jesus does not have to be an abstraction, and it doesn't have to be about something that happened a long time ago. Jesus is living, and active, and present in our lives. Jesus is working for our salvation, our healing, and our reconciliation.

Our lives are filled to the brim with the love of God. It is not for us to pretend it's not there. It is for us to listen, to see, and to recognize. We don't have to go to the top of a hill to find Jesus. Jesus is living. with us.
