When a problem surfaces, sometimes people aren’t so much looking for us to completely solve their problem.

Last night I was reminded that more than solutions, people want to…

• Feel like their voice has been heard and someone has cared enough to listen to them
• Feel like someone attempted to help even if that someone fails to find the perfect solution to their problem

Feeling heard and feeling cared about establishes trust.  And that trust is necessary if we desire to take a relationship to the next level.

We won’t always have the answer or the solution.

But, what we do have, are ears with the ability to listen and hearts with the capacity to care.

Being the hands and feet of Jesus also means being His ears and His heart too.   🙂
