Excerpt from The Fellowship of Silence: Being the Experiences in the Common Use of Prayer Without Words The Editor has asked me to write a few words about this book. I can do so readily and with pleasure. I am convinced, as perhaps we all are, by personal experience and observa tion alike, that there is too much talk and stir, and too little thought and quietness amongst us. I am sure, in the same twofold way, that there is a great lack of the lifting up of the soul in quiet waiting upon God.
