Is it possible that what we perceive to be relational, emotional, and spiritual problems are actually hearing problems -- ears that have been deafened to the voice of God? And it's that inability to hear His voice that causes us to lose our voice and lose our way.
- Mark Batterson
Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”
