Let me seek the gift of silence

Thomas Merton | November 2012 (Vol. XXV, No. 10)

Let me seek, then, the gift of silence, and poverty, and solitude, where everything I touch is turned into a prayer: where the sky is my prayer, the birds are my prayer, the wind in the trees is my prayer, for God is all in all.
