This is a place to be silent
"we are none of us very good at silence. It says too much"2
This is a place simply 'to be'
to be open before God first of all and, if it is your wish, to speak in complete confidence of the diary of your own soul, be it of the terrors of a living hell or of the tender mercies of God
"it would be a dreadful thing to be a pastor without cares but some are overloaded with cares, and overweighted with sorrows"3
