This is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him. – 1 John 5:14-15, WEB
There is Someone who listens to us. Someone who knows us well and believes in our worth. Someone who gives value to our thoughts, to our feelings. The rest of the world may fail to hear our voice, but God hears. He listens to our every cry.
God listens to us, not only in the hour that we approach Him, but always. God listens not only to our words but to our hearts. He knows what we fail to say. He understands what we really wanted to say.
Sometimes we may wonder, why speak to Him if He already knows what we want to say? But such is not how a Father wants His child to do. Even if a Father already knows, He still wants us to come to Him and speak to Him because He loves us.
Let us come to Him indeed, not only with our words, but with all of our being, with our very presence! For such is how love speaks. And it is such how love listens.
My daughter…why do you not tell me about everything that concerns you, even the smallest details? Tell Me about everything, and know that this will give Me great joy. I answered, But You know about everything, Lord.” And Jesus replied to me, “Yes I do know; but you should not excuse yourself with the fact that I know, but with childlike simplicity talk to Me about everything, for my ears and heart are inclined towards you, and your words are dear to Me. – Jesus to St. Faustina, Divine Mercy in my Soul
