“In the silence of the heart God speaks. If you face God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you. Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself. Souls of prayer are souls of great silence.” …Mother Teresa
I ran across that today and realized I spend a LOT of time talking to God and not nearly enough time listening to Him. I find it hard to discern His voice from my crazy brain, but I’m pretty sure it would be easier to recognize if I listened to Him more… Just a thought.
In baby news, we have dropped the overnight feeding and are now working on teaching her how to sleep ALL the way through. She usually goes several hours, but not quite til 7am without some help. We also quit rocking her to sleep and started putting her in her bed to learn to fall asleep there. It’s been challenging but we are sticking to it!
that’s an awesome quote.
next weekend!!!!
We all could listen a little more to GOd, for sure! I am also pleased to hear of your weight loss. Weight loss is so difficult to do and I am proud of your steadfastness. Take care.
