Isaiah 55:8-9
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (MULTILINE)

1. God speaks…but to who? (MULTILINE)

Romans 1:19-20 (TLB)
For the truth about God is known to them instinctively; God has put this knowledge in their hearts. Since earliest times, men have seen the earth and sky and all God made, and have known of his existence and great eternal power. So, they will have no excuse when they stand before God at Judgement Day. (MULTILINE)

2. God speaks…but can I hear Him? (MULTILINE)

John 10:3-4 (NLT)
