...he cannot be found in noise and restlessness

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




Lives were lost. Hearts are broken. And the world keeps spinning.

  1. Lovely and bittersweet. I love that image, and love every word I've ever heard Mother Teresa say.

  2. I think sometimes God is in restlessness.

    And yes, lives lost, hearts broken, and the world keeps spinning as if none of it matters...
