Narrative | A Simple Technique to Help You Listen to God's Word

Paraphrasing the Bible to Listen to God's Word |  Perhaps you know the feeling. You pick up your Bible to read, but your thoughts dwell on your to-do list instead. You read a paragraph three times and still can’t remember what it said. If someone asked you what you read that morning, you aren’t sure you could tell them. You know that reading God’s word is important, but despite spending time with it, you struggle to hear God’s voice over your own. I find my internal chatter more frustrating than the sound of my children ricocheting off the walls of our house; however, I know I can develop habits that fight my perpetual state of distraction. One of these habits is paraphrasing Scripture, putting what I read into my own words. Listen to the rest of Amy Fischer's article today as she encourages you in this simple technique to listen to God's voice.  DOWNLOAD YOUR FREE WORKSHEET TO GO ALONG WITH THIS EPISODE Go to our website to read Amy's entire Article Find more articles and essays written by mothers just like you as they share stories and reflections about how they grow spiritually in Christ in the midst of motherhood. www.mommatheologians.com Join our community on Instagram @mommatheologians Follow our page on Facebook @mommatheologians ENJOY OUR FREE RESOURCE LIBRARY  ___________ Amy Fischer Amy Fischer is a home educating mom of three rambunctious boys.
