If we are to live the most useful life on earth, we must develop the art of listening to the word of God every day. We must believe first of all that God loves us intensely, there is no wiser plan we can make for ourselves better than the one He has made for us. He has all the power to fulfill that plan through us. But God has made it in such a way that we have to cooperate with him by listening to Him and acting on His word. We are coworkers with God. If we don't cooperate, then God's plan for our lives will be frustrated.
Jer 29:11-13 tells us that God has good plans for us, but we have on our side to seek Him wholeheartedly for those plans to be fulfilled.
As we listen to God constantly, our lives becomes better and better. We become more and more like Christ. You are a better person at the end of every year than you were at the beginning.
Gen 1:2-
The earth was empty, formless and dark. Our lives also can be formless, empty and dark, but that not the end. Everyday God spoke and the earth responded. The result after the response was that God saw it was good. It kept on becoming better and better until finally God said that it was very good. Gen 1:4,10,12,18,25,31.
We leave that when we listen and respond to God's voice everyday, we will become better and better just like a student goes from one class to the next after listening to what their teacher teaches and prove by passing exams.
We must live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Mat 4:4
You can be busy doing a lot of things but if you learn to listen to God, you will love the most satisfying Christian life, full of Joy and peace. You will easily overcome life's challenges and you will say as Paul, "Thanks be to God who always helps us to overcome" 2Cor 2:14
You are blessed to be a blessing
