The Gift of Silence

"In quietness and trust is your strength."

— Isaiah 30:15

God of silence,

The world is so noisy. External noises and internal noises. Silence becomes rare and precious. Yet it is in silence that I can hear You.

Thank You for moments of silence. For those spaces where noise ceases, where I can simply be, where Your voice can be heard.

May I cultivate silence in my life. Not an empty silence but a full silence, inhabited by Your presence. Silence is a place of encounter.

Amen.

Reflection

When did you experience true silence recently? How can you create more silence in your life?

For all those who live in constant noise.
