to jargon, we will think carelessly and live foolishly; If, however, we tune into profitable programs which enrich the heart and increase our ability, then we shall grow in grace and usefulness and shall profit by what we hear. Take Heed Where You Hear. Prov. 1:24 There are times when we should listen intently to radio programs which have real value. Presidential speeches are usually important. Messages concerning national affairs, international problems, and scientific discoveries are important. Programs which help the farmer are useful. When there is time and opportu nity such broadcasts should be heard. However, in times of study or in times of personal devotion of when prayer is offered, the world’s voice s h o u l d be hushed.

We should listen only to those things which will enrich the life. What we hear largely deter mines what we think. “ Faith cometh by hearing.” So does doubt. Sinful desires come because we listen to wrong things. Hearing foolishness hinders the mind from thinking clearly. Hearing tragedy hinders the mind from thinking hbly things. Take Heed How Ye Hear.
