John 8: 47 Whoever belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.
Jesus is speaking to the people. He takes a hard line with them. They don't see how special he is. They don't understand the offer he makes to believers.
People are self-serving. We seek comfort by pleasing ourselves. When confronted with the truth, we become uncomfortable. So many times, we turn away. We stop listening to God.
Prayer: I am sorry that I don't listen, Lord. I know that I am a disappointment to You. It's a true miracle that You are so faithful when I am so unfaithful. I confess my many weaknesses.
Amen
