It comes even when you don’t feel personally distressed.
It carries a deep compassion, as though you’re holding something for another.
When it passes, you feel a quiet fatigue paired with peace.

Unite them: silently turn your heart toward God and say, “I am here.”
Offer them: give them meaning—“Receive this as prayer.”
