Listening to Our Hearts, Day 4
Listening to Our Hearts – the theme of this week’s devotions.
The following is my prayer for each day. What do you sense these words saying in your heart/soul/spirit/whatever word you use to describe that internal sense of value and order for your life?
Expand my awareness, O God, to others whom I will see
today and tomorrow.
Help me to look for the signs of our common humanity
as we share our lives with each other.
Help me to listen to the song my heart is singing and,
help me to listen and discern the songs
others are singing in their hearts!
May I capture both the words they speak and
the unspoken realities within their soul.
Sensitize me to the cries for help that all of us bury deep in our hearts.
Remind me of your steadfast love and
help me to reflect your love to others.
Amen.
