Empty your heart;
sit in stillness.

Quiet your fears;
rest in God.

Without listening,
it is impossible to know God –
or peace.

Prayer emerges
naturally from silence.

Silence produces
an inner restfulness
that helps the soul to soar.
The greatest malady of our time
is the absence of
stillness and silence.

Silence gives us
space for receptivity;
it allows us to hear
the speechless language of God
and to respond with our hearts.

To become more and more silent,
to enter deeply into
creative silence, takes courage.
The wordless is foreign to us.
Yet God transcends
language and intellect.

Truth and serenity
lie sleeping
in silence and solitude.
