Mother Teresa

[BobbyP]

An interviewer asked Mother Teresa: "When you pray, what do you say to God?"

Mother Teresa said, "I don’t talk, I simply listen."

He then asked her, "Ah, then what is it that God says to you when you pray?"

She answered, "He also doesn’t talk. He also simply listens."

This was followed by a long silence. Mother Teresa, sensing the confusion of the interviewer, broke the silence and said, "If you can’t understand the meaning of what I’ve just said, I’m sorry but there’s no way I can explain it any better."

Indeed, true connection with the divine is beyond words.
