    Learning to Listen

    Learning to pray is learning to listen. Within the heart we learn to wait with patience for God’s words, which may come even when we have not asked. Listening itself is a form of prayer, in which our whole being is receptive.

    Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee

    I always thought that it would nice to live near a river and fall asleep each night listening to the song of the river. But that’s not the reality in my life. However, when given the opportunity I am learning to listen to the rivers and streams. If that’s prayer then so be it. This is an image of the Big Thompson River in Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park taken back in May. Happy Monday!!

    Moraine Park

    I miss Colorado and the beauty it presented to us. One of my favorite places to spend a quiet morning was somewhere in Rocky Mountain National Park. I know that each place has it’s own beauty whether that is the desert, coast line, swamp, or rainforest. I guess after spending most of my life in Colorado it sort of became a part of me. This was taken a few years ago and found as I sort through old images.
