Collecting your thoughts in silence

 
 
Bl John Paul II Chapel, St Luke The Evangelist Church - Dahlonega, Georgia, USA
 
"If you want the face of Christ to appear in your countenance, pause, collect your thoughts in silence, and shut the door of the soul to the noise of exterior things.  God, in order to be able to speak to the soul and fill it with the knowledge of His love, leads it to the solitude, detaching it from the preoccupations of earthly things.  He speaks to the ears of those who are silent and makes them hear His secrets. "

St Anthony of Padua
