  • Another Merton Quote (a repeat)

    May 8, 2008 // Tags: Faith, Prayer, quote, thomas merton

    My God, I pray better to You by breathing,

    I pray better to You by walking than by talking

    “Dialogues with Silence: Prayers & Drawings” (Thomas Merton), p. 57

    I’ve blogged this before, I’m certain, but it bears repeating.

    Have I mentioned lately how much I enjoy reading Thomas Merton?

Introduction

The ancient Celts traveled in coracles - handmade, wooden framed and hide-covered boats, to journey where the trinitarian God led them. Though the transportation was simple, the journey was profound.
