One Of The Most Powerful Questions You Can Ask Someone

Questions are powerful. Questions lead you to truth and closer relationships.I think one of the most powerful questions you can ask someone is, simply: "How are you?"Ask this question to a friend, neighbor, co-worker, or stranger. Then, listen. Really listen. Most people would love to have a safe and caring person/place/community where they can share how they're really doing. Most people rarely get to share what's really going on because 1) they're rarely asked and/or 2) most people don't listen, but instead simply take turns waiting to talk.Good listening is a byproduct of understanding grace and how the human heart works. As I've written before: grace creates safety (which includes an environment of listening), which creates change.How are you? It's a great question be asked, and it's a great question to ask.
