If we have no silence, God is not heard in our music. If we have no rest, God does not bless our work. If we twist our lives out of shape in order to fill every corner of them with action and experience, God will silently withdraw from our hearts and leave us empty.— Thomas MertonIn this episode, I read and contemplate these words of Thomas Merton. Whatever your faith or background, you can find benefit in this contemplation on the value of leaving space for silence, stillness and rest in our life.The Silentium podcast is supported by patronage and donations.
