Oh, that I had one to hear me! — Job 31:35

 This was the assistance that Job's verbose, sanctimonious friends were unable to provide. He was so upset that he even accused God of not listening, complaining that they were "miserable comforters" (Job 16:2). Oh, that I had someone to hear me, he wailed out." (31:35). 

What is the purpose of active listening? An expression of love for others is listening. It brings relationships, it brings solace to the brokenhearted, it brings hope in God, It declares, "I want to know you and understand you." Learning the facts can also be done via listening. Solomon cautioned that it is foolish to respond to a situation before hearing it out in Proverbs 18:13. 

Most importantly, our attentiveness to God and His Word should come through in how we listen to others. 

He wants to share and educate us so much with us. You'll be better able to hear the cries of those nearby if you take a minute of silence today to offer Him a listening ear.
With your ears than with your mouth, you can make more friends. a sympathetic ear, a kind heart
A kind phrase, a tear of love
will assist in lifting the hefty object
on the path of life, of hurting people.
