Silence is not an enemy to be avoided, but a friend to be embraced. It is the language of the soul, the language of intimacy. God often speaks to us through silence. In silence He teaches us the deep mysteries of the Spirit, the things that can never be communicated with mere words.
“God is our refuge and strength,
— Psalms 46:1 and 10 (NIV)
an ever-present help in trouble…
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God.”
Lord Jesus, silence is foreign to us, noise being such an integral part of our world. Teach us to turn off our iPods and cell phones and embrace the silence that we may truly hear Your voice. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
