Matthew 13:15 For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.”
It is sad to see so many people turn their backs on God when something goes wrong in the world. It is sad to see so many people stay out of church because they think other things are more important.
Just like the people grew cold and far from God back then, people today are growing colder and further from God through their own choices.
God wants us to be close so that we can hear His Word, feed on His Word and accept His love.
