It is from the shattered and the silenced, we whose words have been forged in the fierce night of wordlessness, that the whole church can hear that the heart of our faith is not doing anything for God; it is being with God. We who have been used know the truth: if we are not cultivating reverence for every human we encounter, every part of this world we touch, and every moment we meet God, we will reduce all that is sacred to a resource to use.
