The beginning of prayer is silence. If we really want to pray we must first learn to listen, for in the silence of the heart God speaks. And to be able to see that silence, to be able to hear God we need a clean heart; for a clean heart can see God, can hear God, can listen to God; and then only from the fullness of our heart can we speak to God. But we cannot speak unless we have listened, unless we have made that connection with God in the silence of our heart.

Jesus, I love you. Jesus, I love you.

God speaks in the silence of the heart. Listening is the beginning of prayer.

Love to be real, it must cost—it must hurt—it must empty us of self.
