"Listen, Lord, for thy servant is speaking"?

“Far too often men have taken their theology to the Bible instead of finding their theology in the Bible. When we read scripture we must say, not, “Listen, Lord, for thy servant is speaking,” but, “Speak, Lord, for thy servant is listening.””

(William Barclay, The Gospel of Luke, commenting on Luke 6:1-5, 71)
