Magi Moment

Take a close look at what happens when the Magi come upon the infant Jesus.  No words.  Mary says nothing and the Magi say nothing.  They adore, that is, they focus on the relationship with the infant who is believed to be the Christ.  My point is that when you come upon what is a truly holy and moving moment, a newly discovered relationship, the successful end of a search, why do you babble?  Cannot we simply be in the presence?  I believe the deeper the faith, the deeper the experience, the fewer the words.  If something is missing, words won't replace them.
