Voice of Silence | Titus BrandsmaLike a flower
changing in the invisible sun,
the source of that light and warmth,
so does the human heart turn,
free from basic desires,
go to God, seek him, listen when he speaks,
called him to answer, to open the door so he could show himself.
Yes, the human soul seeks God. In Him, he finds rest, he seeks Him in every way.
He felt His nearness and prepared for His revelation.
She sat there tensed, wondering if her lover had not come,
does he not hear his footsteps, does he not hear his voice.
Titus Brandsma | Dutch mystic (Radioansprache, 1929)
Text translated by RP. Ino, O. Carm (Mainz, 28.03.2022).
