"The lips of the righteous feed many." Pr. 10:21

  If we examine our lives and find that our lips are not feeding many, it is, perhaps, because we we don't discern the presence of God because He is too close, too near, too inward. Jesus said the kingdom of God is within, and those who need to be fed the Bread of Life will not reveal their hunger on the outside: it is inward, within the soul, and we, like God, must learn to speak to the secret, inward places of others. We must tune our ears to the hearts of others. God has given us His spirit of compassion, and this sensitive voice is often His only prompting; follow it, it is the gateway into the souls of others. We must have "eyes that see and ears that hear" the deep need of others.
