Dan Rather, CBS television interviewer, asked Mother Teresa of Calcutta: “When you pray, what do you say to God?”
Teresa: “I don’t say anything, I listen.”
Rather: “Well okay … when God speaks to you, then, what does he say?”
Teresa: “He doesn’t say anything. He listens. … And if you don’t understand that, I can’t explain it to you.”
Oh how I miss that lady…want to give her big hugs in Heaven.
Listening is really such a foundation in any relationship but especially with the Lord. Thanks for commenting.
I love this quote. Thank you for reminding me!
I think I would have liked to see Mr. Rather’s face just then…
OH, I love that! Great and brought a smile, too!
