Listen to me. This is the request Job makes to his friends. It is the request secretly said in the hearts of many a person because what is happening in this world is usually that people don't listen. People prepare to answer rather than listen. Not just in political debates but in life. We are so busy trying to prove our point that we aren't listening to others. Job says in the second verse that if his friends would listen that would be the consultation he wants. The question for us, of course, is are we listening?
I share my personal thoughts and insights as a pastor, father, husband, friend, author, and (at Christmas time) Santa. I talk a lot about forgiveness because learning to forgive isn't easy.

Job 21
