From St. Luke's Hospital

Listen in this music-bereft hole: His voice comes even here. There is no place or non-place left without His Word.

Sometimes to listen is part of the pain, is pulling the hurt through the dark not by one's own strength, but his. The cry for help is heard

Though it is hard to hear the hearing. Pain is borne by the bearing of the Word.

--Madeleine L'Engle
