An old woman would sit motionless for hours on end in church. One day a priest asked her what God talked to her about.
"God doesn't talk. God just listens," was her reply.
"Well, then what do you talk to God about?"
"I don't talk either. I just listen."
The four stages of Prayer:
I talk, you listen.
You talk, I listen.
Neither talks, both listen.
Neither talks, neither listens: Silence
