I learned to listen
with my heart,
to experience
what was right there
in front of me,
and to trust
the natural response
to arise
as a prayer —
somehow, mysteriously
sinking
down into all the places
I had tried so hard
to reach.
As a Prayer
Quiet Reflections and Prayers
I learned to listen
with my heart,
to experience
what was right there
in front of me,
and to trust
the natural response
to arise
as a prayer —
somehow, mysteriously
sinking
down into all the places
I had tried so hard
to reach.

Amazing all the trying goes away and effort. Thank you for this. This is the first place I came today I needed a prayer and here it is. I’m listening to this song a lot lately. I love you ❤️

I think this reminds me of how I use my little poems to stay centered…Not too far in or out or up or down. I explore then let go of everything and focus here. Just interesting. Not that I need to figure out. But it’s fun trying😂

It is fun! I am always trying to figure out as you know! It’s my nature to question and seek. I am making myself tired from it I think. So thankful in the letting go and seeing what comes back gently so thankful for you! ❤

I like that some of these guys talk about the stopping of the seeking.💚
