Take care then how you hear, for to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he thinks that he has will be taken away.”(Luke 8:18 ESV)
Like the parable of the seed, it's a matter of what we do with what we are given: Are we allowing God's word to penetrate our hearts and change our lives. What good is a big bag of seed that is just held doing nothing? What good is light if we hide it? What good is it to read and listen to sermon after sermon, radio teacher after TV preacher, and not be changed? Or to stop growing and changing, to not become a brighter light, to not understand and apply God's Word more and more? Are we really listening?
