As someone raised in a non-liturgical tradition who came to liturgy later in life, I also find tremendous comfort in the Daily Office and Underhill’s advice. It is a gift to go to time-tested, shared (and very beautiful) language when “I got nothin’” Thank you for sharing this!!

Nicole, thank you for sharing your experience ... I too came to liturgy later in life. It's wonderful to hear how the Daily Office and Underhill's advice have been a source of comfort for you. The beauty and depth of liturgical prayers can indeed be a profound gift, especially in times when we feel we have nothing to offer. I'm glad to know that this resonated with you too. Thank you for your encouraging words!
