Spiritual preparation for my silent retreat

Not everyone can do a silent retreat. This inability reflects the problem of sitting still with the Lord and spending time to listen to Him. Lord, thank you for this grace that enables me to do so. As a result, I should not feel superior but humbler instead. I am filled with gratitude that God has made me able to find beauty in His silence.

What I hope to do this time round is to listen to His heart and not just His words, perhaps to just be with Him in whatever way He wants me to be. I was given a chance to be with my bestie in time of physical pain and in the same way, I can be with my suffering Lord :)
