WISDOM IN CIRCLES - March 1-7 (DAY 60-66)

Women of Wisdom,

Welcome to March!

A Month of Listening and Wisdom

As we step into March, we do so with intention.
This month invites us to slow down, listen well, and grow in wisdom — through God’s Word and through one another.

Through our daily OT / NT / Psalm readings and weekly Proverbs reflections, we are training our hearts to hear God and respond in obedience. There is no race to finish the Bible in a year. Some days you may read all three portions; other days, only a few verses from a Psalm, the New Testament, or the Old Testament — and that is still faithfulness.

What matters most is not how much we read, but how we respond. God honors a heart that returns to His Word daily and applies what is learned.

“The one who listens to Me shall live securely.”

Proverbs 1:33 

“Be doers of the word, and not hearers only.”

James 1:22

Listening Styles Reflection

A Prayerful Self-Awareness Exercise

As we continue this week, we turn our attention not only to what we read, but how we listen — to God, to His Word, and to one another.

This reflection is not a test and not about labels. It is an invitation to awareness, humility, and growth.

Instructions

Read each statement slowly and prayerfully.

• For private reflection, notice which statements resonate most with you

• Choose 2–3 statements that best reflect how you usually listen

• Ask God what He may be inviting you to grow in

When your Fellowship Circle meets:

• Ask one another which statements they feel may reflect you

• Then share which statements you believe describe you most often

• Listen with grace — this is about growth, not judgment

Reflection Statements

1. I tend to pause and think carefully before responding, preferring to listen fully first.

2. When I hear something from God or others, my instinct is to act on it right away.

3. I listen closely to tone, emotions, and what may be unspoken in a conversation.

4. Certain parts of a message stand out to me more than others, while some details may fade.

5. Some topics cause me to feel guarded or resistant before I fully hear what is being said.

6. My mind can wander or jump ahead, even when I genuinely want to listen well.

7. I naturally evaluate and weigh what I hear to see if it aligns with truth.

8. I desire to learn and grow, even when what I hear challenges or stretches me.

9. I listen attentively so I can support, encourage, and build others up.

10. When God speaks, my heart posture is willingness, even if obedience feels uncomfortable.

• I became aware of resistance to instruction or correction (Prov. 10:17; 12:15).
