This week, pastoral elder Robert Key looks at the spiritual gifts of faith, healings, and miracles as found in 1 Corinthians 12:4-1. He discusses the gifts themselves, but the underlying message will be that our faith in these areas can grow according to our relationship with the Lord and as we are more able to hear Him speak to us.For further reflection, please consider these questions:

• Does the measure of our faith have anything to do with whether we see healings and miracles? Why or why not?
• Is there something we can do if we want to see our faith grow?
• Is there something we can do if we want to be more able to hear God speak to us?
• Does taking the time to listen for God to speak contribute to our ability to hear?
• Where is your listening place?
• What do you do to get away from the distractions of life and listen?
• How much time does it take you for your brain to shift from thinking about the day to listening?
• Do you ever get there?
• With practice can we get there more easily?
