I find your question challenging, because as an Atheist, I am completely unable to relate! I don't know what you are burning to say, but I know what I might ask you. And if there is anything worthwhile and Christ like, it would be entirely to put away robotic regurgitation of litany, and instead to ferret out and understand what others are concerned with. -Not even to speak from ones heart, but to speak to the hearts of others whom God crosses your path. Forget about egotistically pronouncing the word of God. Listening is the art. In the words of Simone Wiel: "Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity." But that demands engagement with them, for in the words of Agnes Repplier: “A man who listens because he has nothing to say can hardly be a source of inspiration.”
