Morning Offering: 06. 05. 24

Today’s Reflection: Pure prayer begins at the threshold of silence. It says nothing, asks for nothing. It’s a kind of listening. The deeper the listening, the less we listen for, until silence itself becomes the voice of God. —  Stephen Mitchell

Today’s Reflection: Begin your day and your prayers in silence, for it is in the silence of the heart that God speaks. He is the friend of silence, we need to listen to God because it’s not what we say but what He says to us and through us that matters.  — Bodmin Hermit

Morning Offering: 11. 28. 23

Today’s Reflection: Today I pray for silence in a cacophony of sound.
I ask for the grace to float in the currents of my soul.
To feel the ebb and flow of the Spirit holding me.
To hear the gentle pulls and pushes of Your whispers.
To accept the gravitational fall to my center in you.
To open my heart to courageous acceptance,
Bringing your hope, your love to the world. —Jen LaMaster
