I hope I am posting in the right place! Perhaps someone can help me; a friend is looking for a specific prayer. She thinks it is called the “Listening” or “Listener’s” prayer. 🤷

It used to appear in an old missal – don’t know what one, or how old . . . :banghead:

I am afraid that is all the hint I have – sorry! Does it ring a bell with anyone?

Thanks for your help! God Bless.
 
I looked in my 1950 version of St. Joseph Missle and could not find anything that sounded like that. Also checked my Jesus Keep Me prayer book from 1954.
More information about what is in the prayer would help.
 
Don’t know if this is it?

A Listener’s Prayer
God grant me to be………… Silent before, that I may hear you; at rest in you—that you may work in me; open to you—that you may enter; empty before you—that you may fill me; Let me be still, and know you are my God.

Oh, that’s a perfect prayer. I don’t know if that’s the right one but thanks for posting it.
 
Sorry, Prague – I wish I had more info – it was mentioned at a meeting and I was just trying to help this parishioner out!

tb - thanks - I’ll run it past the parishoner and see if that is the one - boy, it seems perfect - thank you.

God Bless you all.
