✦ MADE SIMPLE

People from far away places will come help build God's temple, and when that happens, you'll know for sure that the Lord sent me to you. But here's the thing — this will only happen if you actually listen to God and follow what he says.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

God's promises come true when we actually follow through on our end of the deal.

That's why I talk to them in stories and metaphors — because even though they're looking right at me, they're not really seeing what's happening. They hear my words but they're not actually listening or getting it.
