In today's story, Ziklag was robbed, and David felt angry. However, he remembered an important lesson: God's plan is always the best plan. David exemplified this by inquiring of the Lord when he didn't know what to do. He prayed and asked God for guidance, just like talking to a best friend. Prayer is a two-way conversation with God. While we talk to Him about our feelings, thoughts, and concerns, it's equally important to listen. Listening to God involves being still, quiet, and attentive to His whispers in your heart, which can come through your Bible, the Holy Spirit, or everyday experiences. The more you practice listening to God, the easier it becomes. Jesus assures us that His sheep hear His voice.
