John 21:17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Feed my sheep.
What is your reaction when God continue to ask you something? Do you turn round and get angry at Him, or do you stop and think what He is trying to achieve?
Far too often we react to things in our lives, and sadly, we react to God’s Word too.
What we should be doing, instead, is stopping for a short while and thinking about what God is trying to get from us.
He does know what is best – so it is best to stop and listen!
