Sometimes we can sit so still and quiet as if a bird has landed on our head and our whole being is focused on the moment. Pre dawn is always such a lovely time with silence, stillness and presence and I was reading a saying by Thomas Merton which said: This flower. This moment. This silence - the Lord is here. Best because the flower is itself and the silence is itself, and the silence is itself and I am myself.
May the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways.
Anne, servant of the Lord
