Learning to Listen

Janine, my child, I am here and I await your hands upon this Tabernacle that we may commune in the ways of mother and child. I give myself to you that you may be nurtured and attended to and loved with the love that judges not, but rather, builds upon what is within your very soul. You are expanded today for your yes makes it so.  

The lesson today is to show those placed before us how to listen. Learning to listen comes from being shown how to listen by being listened to with the ear of the heart.  It is as the little child who begs to be heard and cannot yet be taught how to listen for the child must be mature enough to know how to listen. As children mature they become ripe to listening if those in their care teach by example. You cannot teach such things with words alone for words are empty when not shown. 

If a child is not listened to how can that child know how to listen? It is only by being nurtured with the listening voice that children grow to listen. 

Janine, you were such a child for those placed in your care could not listen to you. Those in your care  were never heard. They knew not how to listen for the generations before them did not nurture in the ways of listening.

The witness in your life's story taught you that you have much value by listening and attending to you. Also, attending to this Tabernacle has filled you and matured you to learn how to listen with the ear of the heart.
