‘This is my Son, the Beloved; with him I am well pleased; listen to him!’ Matthew 17:5b
‘If you have ears to hear with, then listen!’ Matthew 11:15

Listen…
to the fragile feelings, not to the clashing fury
to the quiet sounds, not to the loud clamour
to the steady heartbeat,
not to the noisy confusion
to the hidden voices, not to the obvious chatter
to the deep harmonies,
not to the surface discord
