A reflective spiritual poem by Robert Van Valkenburgh explores the journey from restlessness and self-centered striving into divine stillness, grace, and solitude. Through surrender and transformation, the soul discovers that true silence and comfort are found in God’s presence, where darkness becomes rest and solitude becomes communion.

John Tauler reflects on the gift of inner stillness, teaching that in silence and spiritual peace, the Divine Word of God can be born within our souls. This timeless Christian wisdom invites believers to seek grace, contemplation, and union with God through quiet surrender.
