Listening & Speaking

I came accross this quote from Mother Theresa and for me speaks profoundly about prayer...

"The beginning of Prayer is silence...God speaking to the silence of the heart.
And then we start talking from the fulness of the heart. And God listens.

The beginning of prayer is scripture...we listen to God speaking again
from the fullness of our heart. And God listens.

That is really prayer.
Both sides listening and both sides speaking."
