Christian Quotation of the Day

October 11, 2008

Commemoration of Ethelburga, Abbess of Barking, 675

         It is not necessary to maintain a conversation when we are in the presence of God. We can come into His presence and rest our weary souls in quiet contemplation of Him. Our groanings, which cannot be uttered, rise to Him and tell Him better than words how dependent we are upon Him.
         ... O. Hallesby, Prayer
