A while back, I saw a picture of Deacon Greg Kandra meeting Chewbacca from Star Wars and then it hit me: is the Wookie from Star Wars wearing a diaconal stole (Orarion)?

Today’s song is “In the silence” by Sarah Kroger from her album “Your Time”:

In the silence of the heart you speak,
and your mercy is the air I breathe.
You come to me in whispers

and forgiveness sings.
In the silence of the heart you speak;
Lord, you speak.

To the quiet of this room you come;
I am captivated by this love.
You light these darkened corners,
and I’m overcome.
To the quiet of this room you come;
Lord, you come.

Silence, fall; oh I am listening.
I am listening; sing to me.
Spirit, fall; oh please stay with me.
I am listening now;
I am listening now.

In the stillness of my soul you know;
you are hope that will not let me go.
You are the voice I follow;
you lead me home.
In the stillness of my soul you know;
Lord, you know.
