A Time for SilenceLourdes can be very noisy, so it is important that at some stage during the pilgrimage we take time to be still, perhaps in The Tent of Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament or in front of the Grotto. Sometimes if you cross over to the Prairie and sit on the wall by the river facing the Grotto it can be very still and calm. Teach us, O God, that silent language which says all things. Teach our souls to remain silent in thy presence: that we may adore thee in the deeps of our being and await all things from thee, whilst asking of thee nothing save the accomplishment of thy will. Teach us to remain quiet under thine action and produce in our souls that deep and simple prayer which says nothing and expresses everything, which specifies nothing and expresses everything. J.N.
