Reflecting . . .


This week we began our Lenten journey and I have been drawn to the thought of reading the Rule of St Benedict.  Actually, I got no further than the first word!  It was this:

        Listen

Listen.  What an amazing and challenging word!!  I was struck by its richness and beauty, how difficult it is to achieve, and how awesome are the blessings when we take it into our heart.

Will you join me today in meditating on this beautiful word and see where it takes you?

Blessings,
Ros

  1. I read these words somewhere ...
    Know how to listen, and you will profit even from those who talk badly.
    And I felt they relate so well to your post. Listening is the best gift you can give to anyone. May you profit from this meditation.
    Warmest regards,
