Soul Scribe

Every moment and every event of every man’s life on earth plants something in his soul.

Thomas Merton

Better to light one small candle than to curse the darkness.

Chinese Proverb

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.

Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Now come, write it on a tablet they can keep, inscribe it in a record; That it may be in future days an eternal witness: This is a rebellious people, deceitful children, Children who refuse to obey the law of the LORD. They say to the seers, “Have no visions”; to the prophets, “Do not descry for us what is right; speak flatteries to us, conjure up illusions. Out of the way! Out of our path! Let us hear no more of the Holy One of Israel.”

Isaiah 30: 8-11

New American Bible

Before you speak, it is necessary for you to listen, for God speaks in the silence of the heart.

Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta (1910-1997)
