The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
“I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind”
Jeremiah 17:9-10a
God of silence and God of sound,
help me to listen.
Help me to do the deep listening to the sounds of my soul,
waiting to hear your soft voice calling me deeper into you.
Give me attentive ears
that begin to separate the noise from the sounds that are you;
you who have been speaking to me
and through me my whole life,
for so long that you can seem like background noise.
Today help me hear you anew.
