Silence

Be still and hear
what was said.
Silence is essential
for discernment.

A page too full
of information
needs white space
for clarity.

You fill your lives
too full to hear Me.
Turn aside
and serve.

You are too busy
to see Me here.
Be still and Know
I AM God.

When you pray.
When you worship.
Stop and listen.
Hear Me in silence.

When you work.
When you play.
Stop and listen.
Hear Me in silence.
(1st Kings 19:12-13, Psalm 46:10)
