O Might Counselor, speak to us within our hearts; let your voice be heard. And as we listen and heed your Word, joy will be our song of thanks. As You lead us into the Silence, we become friends with solitude. With trust in You, our lives become simple, assurance and peace leaving no room for fear. All that we have is gift from You, O Gracious Creator, all that we are is Yours as well.
May we come to see that all we give to others, we give to ourselves and You.
The carefree hearts of children reflect qualities that are divine by their restless pranks and blissful for their innocence. It is for us to see how far we can make use of this "Divinity" in ourselves, expressed through the child-God.
There is no cost to have the Friends of Silence monthly letter sent to you each month.
