Adoration, Silence and Praise

A few thoughts to chew on from men, if nothing else, who were striving for holiness. Relinquishing control and silence are two areas I have a difficult time with in my own life.

"When tempted to lose hope, I have only one recourse, to throw myself at the foot of the tabernacle like a little dog at the foot of his master."

~Pope John XXIII

"In a world where there is so much noise, so much bewilderment, there is a need for silent adoration of Jesus concealed in the Host. Be assiduous in the prayer of adoration and teach it to the faithful. It is a source of comfort and light, particularly to those who are suffering."

~Pope Benedict XVI
