L-I-S-T-E-N.   S-I-L-E-N-T.  E-N-L-I-S-T. All three words have the same letters. All three words make a great way to live one’s Christian life.  LISTEN to what God wants of you from the good desires of your hearts, your talents, and the affirmation you receive. Be SILENT and let the mystery of Christ penetrate your inmost being, deepening your awareness of God’s closeness. Then ENLIST in taking up the ministry God asks whether it’s the day’s mission or a lifetime discipleship. All three words can become your prayer for today. LISTEN. SILENT. ENLIST. AMEN.
