Br. Jude Grieshaber, O.P., on Silence and Our Relationship with God

"God is found in silence. Supremely in the Eucharist, he is there, quietly awaiting our company, hoping we take some time to sit with him. He loves us, and because he loves us, he waits. We forget him, but day and night he is always thinking of us.

"Silence is an inescapable precursor for growth in holiness, for encountering the good God who beckons us to recognize his presence. . . . The prophet [Elijah] reminds us that God is often hidden in the most unlikely of places, especially in the sound of sheer silence."

In a recent commentary, Brother Jude Mary Grieshaber, O.P., reflected on the importance of ging time to God and how, when we go to him, He "strengthens our souls, comforts our afflictions, and brings his peace to our souls."
