Our hearing is not attuned

Marian Scheele
March 1998 (Vol. XI, No. 3)

So often, the Spirit is blowing blessings on us, but our hearing is not attuned to this wind from heaven.

Quote of the Day

In the depths of silence, we are all one, and it is through interior stillness that knowledge of our oneness with the Creator reaches us. It has been truly said that the voice of silence carries infinitely farther than the loudest cry. Such a union as this can never be ours except in silence, and through stillness and deep prayer and meditation we can begin to comprehend the meaning of Infinity and of that one Mind in which we all live and move and have our being.
