Silence - Mother Teresa

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls. --Mother Teresa

Amen! I've found that as I get older, I value quiet more than ever.

Silence?! I'm not sure I remember what that is. Maybe that's part of the reason God seems so far away right now.
