In the presence of the Angels, joining them in their endless praise, we gather over and over during each day to raise our minds and hearts to God. We beg the Lord that our voices may fittingly join with theirs.
As our Constitutions remind us, even while on earth we are to be "citizens of heaven," and "strangers to worldly behavior." In our life of solitude and silence we long for the "interior quiet in which wisdom is born."
