Be Still
 
I have a habit of talking to God, not only in reverent prayer to the “O Lord” far away, but also sometimes just chatting — like two friends on a quiet walk — about stuff that puzzles, pleases or interests me.
  
But there are also times when — like true and old friends — we travel silently, comfortably, just enjoying each other’s company.  Not a word; just a presence that fills my soul and reminds me that I’m never alone, never cast adrift or left on my own. 
 
My point:  I guess it’s that prayer need not always be articulated with a lot of words.  Enjoy your many blessings, including the silence of God’s presence. — jri
