"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God" (Psalm 14:1). "Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it?" (Proverbs 17:16). "We are all here present before God, to hear all the things that are commanded thee of God" (Acts 10:33).
The fool has no delight to hear
The truth God would impart,
And so he simply stops his ear
And hardens thus his heart.
The fool may sound like he's sincere
And come with price in hand,
But what's the point if he won't hear
And follow God's command?
How great the contrast that we see
In those who have prepared
To listen with humility
To what God has declared.
Let us therefore likewise be
Prepared to hear and heed
And follow Christ obediently
Wherever He will lead.
