Entry #88 from Tama Fortner and her '100 Things God Loves About You":

GOD LOVES THE WAY YOU LISTEN.

"My sheep listen to my voice;
I know them,
and they follow me."

~ John 10:27

"Listen......did you hear that? Not the roar, not the rush, not the bullying, shouts and screams of the world. But that? That still, small voice? That's Him---it really is. The Lord God of all, Yahweh, Elohim, Jehovah-jireh is speaking to you. Yes, you.

"And because you are His, you know His voice. So you stop. You drop to your knees, even if it's only in your heart, and you listen. 'Be Still,' He says, 'and know that I am God' (Psalm 46:10). He loves the way you listen.
