May these words from Henri Nouwen guide me through the next 40 days of Lent...
"Praying means above all listening to the voice of Jesus, who dwells in the depths of the heart. Jesus does not force himself on us, his voice is reserved. Whatever we may do in our lives, let us never fail to listen to the voice of the Lord in our hearts. Because in our restless, noisy world the loving voice of God is easily drowned out. Each day let us keep a certain period of time free for this active listening to God, even if it is only ten minutes. Spending ten minutes every day exclusively on Jesus can change our lives from the ground up..."
I'll vote for THAT this Lenten season -- my life being changed from the ground up!
