8--he anaianChampion, Friday, May 21, 2004 Are You A G-ood fiinr Some experts suggest that women tend to be better listeners than men. In fact, many husbands are notorious for being poor listeners. Perhaps you are familiar with the scene of a husband reading the newspaper while his wife is trying to talk. His responses is "Yes, dear. Uh, huh. Mmm. Is that so?" But he's flot really listening. Suddenly, his wife pulls down the newspaper and asks "Have you heard a word I've said?" Two men were talking one day. One of them said, "My wife talks to her- self a lot." His friend answered, "Mine does, too, but she doesn't know it. She thinks 'm listening." Poor listening, however, is flot just attributed to men. Sometimes, ail of us listen poorly - as a group of pas- sengers on an air plane when the flight attendant is making the required safety announcement.

Transportation Safety Board, tells a ~oc OUR AtM: 90 make it the baut houe in every ~ child'n week... thsvimn prvidîs a sal, e enflenOt w er ,,c>. hids nasnvîy gat leaming andilosssg rna- j it sipnvs f tfncy thssoghg aden6 t Sunday Mornlng Service 10:00 - ll:3Oam Milton Seniors Centre 500 Childs Drive (near the mail) Every Sunday www.thesanctuary.ca/mllton "Attitudes for Mti succes 1u living."

Not a single pas- senger noticed. I read about a middle-aged woman who suffered with a hearing problem. One day, she and her husband were driving from New Brunswick to Ontario. They were pulled over by an OPP officer who asked if the husband knew how fast he was drivîng? The wife asked, "What did he say?" The husband replied, "HE ASKED IF YOU KNEW THAT 1 WAS SPEED- ING." Looking at the driver's license, the officer said, "I see you're not from around here. "The husband said, "No, we are from Moncton." The wife again asked, "What did you say?" The husbandý told her, "I SAID WE ARE PROM MONCT'ON" Tlhe officer then commented, "You know, the meanest woman I ever met was fromn Moncton." The wife again asked, "What did he say?" The hus- band replied, "HIE SAYS HE THINKS HE KNOWS YOU!" Jesus said, "He who has ears te hear, let him hear." It is possible te hear with our physical ears and not to hear with our ears of spiritual understand- ing. Often, our ears can become clogged by the wax of worry, stress, or anxiety se that we fail to hear what the spirit is trying to communicate. But God desires to speak to us! He desires to reveal His will to us, and to be actively involved in leading us. From the beginning of the creation of man, and continuing throughout his- tory, God has wanted to communi- cate with His creation. He walked in the cool of the day with Adam. He spoke te men and women who fol- lowed Him throughout the ages. Today, He calis us te be led by His Spirit - which entails hearing Hlis voice as He speaks through the writ- ten Word and eur private trne with r r I..... We welcome you to... ST.
