Interesting thoughts, Robert. Great imagism effect, makes the reader think that if you wish to hear God's voice, one should probably start by listening. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes, Caroline.

Very profound, Robert! We ask much of God and hope he is listening to us. But sometimes when he is communicating with us, we have our ears (and our minds) closed to his wisdom. Excellent write! Love, Carolyn

Wow!! This says so much about our ability to really listen! Wow !!
