Something to Contemplate
Note: This week’s devotions are designed to help us journey deeper; the thoughts, insights and prayers come from various pens of writers who influence my spiritual awareness. Hope you enjoy!
Words from Soren Kierkegaard:
“As my prayers became more attentive and inward,
I had less and less to say.
I finally became completely silent.
I started to listen—which is even further removed from speaking.
I then learned that praying is hearing, not merely being silent.
This is how it is:
to prayer does not mean to listen to oneself speaking.
Prayer involves becoming silent, and being silent,
and waiting until God is heard!”
Have a meaningful week!
