When we are in the midst of a busy everyday life, so many thoughts go in and out of our minds and our hearts, it is difficult to hear the Lord’s still small voice. But when we quiet our noisy thoughts, we are much more discerning. The way is open to follow even the gentlest leadings of the Spirit and to avoid even the most subtle deviations that are suggested either by the self or by the evil one.

“…be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is…”

— Romans 12:2 (NIV)

Lord Jesus, still my anxious thoughts so that I can hear and recognize Your voice no matter how quietly You speak. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
