O God of wonder and mystery, teach me by means of your wondrous, terrible, loving, all embracing silence.
~ from PRAYERS OF THE HEART by Richard J. Foster
Claim your silence...We—a society so obsessed with noise, news clips, action, arguments, debates, anger, confrontation, stimulation and busy-ness—must recreate ourselves and re-carve a place of silence (some might call it prayer) in our lives. It is a great healing measure for the wounded world outside of us, and the wounded world within us.
