Teach me to listen.

DEAR GOD,

ENABLE ME TO BE

BRUTALLY HONEST

WITH YOU

And with myself

(which is the same thing).

Teach me how to shut up

And listen

Only to you

Right now

At this moment

(This is my prayer.)

Shut up all the distractions

Shut up the warring

junk

And simply receive.

Listen with my heart.

Let it fill my soul.

Not bringing up anything

Just listening

And breathing.

Teach me too listen.
Teach me too listen.
