Sometimes, when I pray, I simply don’t know what to say, especially when i`m extremely sad or angry or even happy. When those moments come, I ask God, “Lord, is it OK if I just stay here? I just want to be with you.”Then I feel the lord smile and nod. Somehow, I know He enjoys those moments of simply being together as much as I do.
So much of our day is consumed by words and noise. Even when we are alone, we need some “ambient noise”—from TV, computer games and MP3 players . Seldom are we comfortable in silence, with simply “being”.
When we pray, how I wish we could be more like people in love. They don’t need to talk to enjoy each other`s company. Just gazing into each other`s eye is enough. No words are needed; simply being together is enough.
Our prayers do not always need to be full of words. The Lords enjoys our presence, even if we sometimes do not know what to say . He understands our silence, and listens to our hearts. He loves us in our entirely.
Sometimes its in silence that the most important things are said and heard.---DIDACHE --
