“And when the hour had come that was to move the long days onward to Bethlehem…a moment paused, above a quiet place, and found, just this, a woman wrapped in silence, and the seed of silence was her heart that tried to give all that it held to give, and ever more.”

~John W. Lynch—excerpt from “A Woman Wrapped in Silence”

For Reflection:

What thoughts and insights come to you through the description “a woman wrapped in silence?” What interior attitude marked Mary’s silence? What does the poetry suggest? What about Luke 2:19, 51? How can I imitate Our Lady and also become “a woman wrapped in silence?”
