The way the light falls through the windows.
The sounds our silence makes when we come together like this.
The sense we have of each other’s presence.
The feeling in the air that one way or another we are all of us here
to give each other our love, and to give God our love.
This kind moment itself is a door that holiness enters through.
May it enter you.
May it enter me.
To the world’s saving.
-Frederick Buechner, Secrets in the Dark: A Life in Sermons
