Bill Hybels Day 11: Hearing Them Out

Welcome back to Beliefnet's exclusive Bill Hybels devotional, "Living with Grander Vision." This feed will appear in your profile every day for three full weeks. Did you miss any entries? Just stay subscribed, and the feed will begin again at the end of its cycle.

Ever notice how people light up when you mention something they love? When you're first getting to know people, relax your agenda enough to uncover what they're involved in first. Build bridges instead of walls when you are endeavoring to point people to faith in Christ.

"To the weak I became weak, to win the weak," the apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians 9:22. "I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some."

During your interactions today, rather than gearing up to say your piece, bite your tongue, take a deep breath, ask the Holy Spirit for direction, and ask a thoughtful question or two instead.
