From my #meditation this morning: Note how the people in the synagogue connect Jesus’ authority to teach (Mk. 1:22) with His #authority to act (v. 27)… i.e., enacting the #KingdomOfGod!

!["As soon as she [the contemplative soul] sets herself to pray she is with God and, in loving surrender, remains in his presence. Her silence is more precious to him than many words." -Edith Stein](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:26z7zahp4of7wmvlamyinoiz/bafkreihq7gebyn2p3x6meixw7vmcan3ag3ai3wqpwelt6xmz3kjlumfwp4)
"As soon as she [the contemplative soul] sets herself to pray she is with God and, in loving surrender, remains in his presence. Her silence is more precious to him than many words." -Edith Stein
I love this quote from Edith Stein on the experience of contemplation in the contemplative soul. Silent prayer as a means of resting in God's presence is a wonderful gift.
