Open Our Ears and Our Hearts

Here is something of a reflection, a poem, a prayer, a plea from my own misery to the omnipotence, goodness, and mercy of God in Jesus Christ.

This text was published last week in MAGNIFICAT. It seemed to resonate with others, so I am reproducing it here as we enter upon this holy season of prayer, penance, and preparation for the celebration of the victory of Christ's all-embracing love.
