A Listening Lord

7 Replies

Lord, when my soul is weary and my heart is tired and sore, and I have that failing feeling that I can’t take any more; then let me know the freshening found in simple, childlike prayer; when the kneeling soul knows surely that a listening Lord is there.

–Ruth Bell Graham (1920-2007), from Ruth Bell Graham’s Collected Poems

    Beautiful Nancy!
    I love Ruth Bell Graham!
    What an encourager she was! I have her book on prodigals and those who love them.
    Such a comfort!
    Love & hugs to you!

    All my heart,
