Day 32 of Lent

Read the Bible passage John 7.40-52 then ponder some thoughts below written by Maureen from East Manchester as part of our Manchester and Salford walk through Lent up to Easter.


Are we not afraid sometimes to listen to people who have something to say to us, are we afraid of what they might tell us. The crowed are torn as to who Jesus is. He could be a prophet, he could be the Christ, but he only comes from Galilee.


Are we only prepared to listen to those who come highly qualified or should we listen to what anybody tells us because God can speak through any of us at any time of our lives. So during Lent let us be prepared to listen for God speaking to us in many different ways.
