Contemplative prayer has the quality of an inner sabbath.  In a world driven by the need to accomplish and acquire, in a world where we judge one another on the basis of performance, God calls us to the radical trust of rest....In contemplation we move from communicating with God through speech to communing with God through the gaze of love.  Words fall away, and the most palpable reality is being present to the lover of our souls.
