There is a time of sound, there is a time of silence just like there is a time to inhale and a time to exhale. The exhale is not less important , both are equally important even though they serve different functions. In times of silence we can experience the beauty of the in between. In a results oriented world this is often not valued but I have learned to look beyond the world’s expectations. It doesn’t mean that I don’t fall under the spell of thinking that world the has to offer is all there is, I just spend a little less time in that frame of mind. Spending time with God, a part of which is in silence, each day has taught me that all that I seek from a world full of sound actually resides in my own heart. In a time of silence I am able to notice and become better acquainted with that heart. My prayer for us today is that we ask God for the courage to be with silence for just a moment this day and each day so that we can become familiar with what God loves about us. Make it a great one!
