About this listen

Scripture

Psalm 5:1–3 (NRSV)

Give ear to my words, O Lord;

give heed to my sighing.

Listen to the sound of my cry,

my King and my God,

for to you I pray.

O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice;

in the morning I plead my case to you, and watch.


Refrain

God hears what I cannot say.


Poem

Barbara Brown Taylor

“Prayer is not a production;

it is not something you perform or complete.

It is the practice of attending.

Sometimes to the stillness.

Sometimes to your own breath.

Sometimes to the ache that will not speak.

And always—to the presence of God,

who listens even when you forget to speak.”
