One of the purposes of prayer that we learnt about back in our first week of meetups was that it is an act of COMMUNICATION. Part of healthy communication in any relationship is giving space for each of you to speak while the other listens. In this week’s poem Steve Page reminds us of the importance that listening has in our relationship with God.
Remember to Listen
Have you ever had the feeling
while praying
that you've inadvertently
been talking
while God is speaking?
Don't worry -
He wrote it down for you.
Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.
Jeremiah 33:3
