If the greatest god is the stillness all the motions add up to, then we must ineluctably be included.

The physical voice we use in prayer need not be great nor startling; even should we not lift up any great cry or shout, God will yet hear us.

In this day the breeze of God is wafted, and His Spirit hath pervaded all things. Such is the outpouring of His grace that the pen is stilled and the tongue is speechless.

And all the winds go sighing, for sweet things dying.

The best prayers have often more groans than words.

When the vastness of God meets the restriction of our own humanity, words can't hold it. The best we can do is find the moments that rhyme with this expansive heart of God.

Hearing the word is the devout receiving of the will of God.

God is gone up on high with a triumphant noise.

There is need occasionally to leave the noise and the tumult of the world and step within the walls of a sacred house of God, there to feel His Spirit in an environment of holiness and peace.
