I can picture the pharisees trying to trap Jesus in something He might say.  They\u2019ve been trying since the beginning, but finally gave up.  I wonder how much they might have learned if they listened instead of questioning Him.  The pharisees might have become His disciples instead of His enemy.  I bet they are regretting their choice now.<\/p>\n<p>Application: I need to listen more and speak less.  As people talk I\u2019m already planning on what I\u2019m going to say instead of listening to them.  I need to be a better listener especially when it comes to God.  When I pray, I need to take time to stay still and listen.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer My Lord, You know me better than I know myself.  You know how my mind races and it\u2019s hard for me to be still.
