"Perfect love casts out fear." It is not be thinking ourselve sright that we cease to fear. It is simply by loving, and abandoning ourselves to the One whom we love without returning to self. That is what makes death sweet and precious. When we are dead to ourselves, the death of the body is only the consummation of the work of grace.
There is no cost to have the Friends of Silence monthly letter sent to you each month.
For the past 32 years, a small band of dedicated friends have poured their hearts and love into Friends of Silence.
Each month we send out the newsletter in print and email to a growing community of over 10,000 people.
The monthly newsletter of contemplative quotes remains free and is made possible by your generosity and support.
If our work brings you any hope and a sense of belonging, then please consider supporting our labor of love with a donation.
And if you’ve already given, from the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU.
