Quiet reflection

Not quite sure where I stand with all the "faith" stuff these days. But I do know that quiet reflection and contemplation and (dare I say it) meditation makes a much bigger impact on me than noisy loud music and what passes for worship in modern church services.

Perhaps it's because modern stuff seems to make the individual the centre of things, whereas older forms of worship put the Divine firmly at the centre.

It was interesting to observe that pretty much every seat was filled for this evening service. At the end, the person leading it said "feel free to just sit quietly - don't feel you need to rush away" - and no-one moved for about fifteen minutes.

A slice of heaven.
