May 2

*As we begin again, I will post my commentary from last time with edits and add new comments as they come.


Prologue pt. 1

The Rule of Benedict May 2

Our first priority is to develop the capacity to listen with the ears of our hearts.  Our second is to learn obedience.  This capacity is developed and obedience is learned through prayer. Barriers between us and a daily prayer practice must be overcome.

I am pleased that our journey over the last months has borne witness to much overcoming of barriers to prayer. Let us remember as we begin again that listening and obedience are ongoing. We are never done with the process of conversion.
