“There are two ways of keeping God’s word, 
namely, one, whereby we store in our memory 
what we hear and the other, whereby we put into practice, what we have heard (and none will deny that the latter, is more commendable, inasmuch, as it is better to sow grain, than to store it in the barn).” - St Jordan of Saxony; patron saint of Dominican vocations and successor to St Dominic as Master General of the Order of Preachers

About midnight, while Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God as the prisoners listened, there was suddenly such a severe earthquake that the foundations of the jail shook; all the doors flew open, and the chains of all were pulled loose. When the jailer woke up and saw the prison doors wide open, he drew [his] sword and was about to kill himself, thinking that the prisoners had escaped. But Paul shouted out in a loud voice, “Do no harm to yourself; we are all here.” He asked for a light and rushed in and, trembling with fear, he fell down before Paul and Silas. Then he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:25-30)

St Silas; early Christian prophet and missionary, companion of St Paul the Apostle
