God hears

In his life on earth Jesus made his prayers and requests with loud cries and tears to God, who could save him from death. Because he was humble and devoted, God heard him. -Hebrews 5:7

Lord, hear the cries of our hearts. I lift up to you all my plans and dreams. Thank you for the hope that you have planted in my heart. You make all things possible. Amen.

Today, we started our topic about the sense of hearing. I let my kids listen to different nature sounds and animal sounds, and pointed out how we use our ears to hear. 

Today's reading speaks of a God who hears. He does not only listen with His ears as we normally do, but listens with His heart. He knows our cries. He knows my cries. He knows the joy that comes with a satisfying "Thank You, Lord... much more, the pain that comes with a distressed cry such as "Help me, Lord."

This just reminded me to persist and persevere in prayer. 
Pray unceasingly because He listens.

Ciao!
