silence please!

To pray is to listen attentively to the One who addresses us here and now. To pray is to listen to God's voice of love. Why am I so hard of hearing? I am so restless. Where is the quietude? I can't wait to be busy again.


God, what am I that you are mindful of me, and the Son of Man, that he came to visit me?

Move my heart toward Yours. Teach me Your ways, O Lord so I can walk in your truth. Give me an undivided heart so I can fear your name!

My heart bounces from one thing to the next. Activity covers up my shallow knowledge and weak relationship with You.
