Is there room in your life to hear God’s call?
How often during the day do you create quiet
spaces in which to listen for his voice?
The question is, do we believe and trust that God has a
message for us and wants too communicate directly with us?
From the moment we get up, too long after we have gone to bed, we are linked to the noise in our lives: radio, iTunes, TV, social media,
family, friends and loudest of all our internal voices all clamor for our
attention and drown out the still calm voice of the Creator.
Silencing all of the outside noise and calming our
internal voice is hard work and requires that we believe God wants to speak to
us – has a very personal message of acceptance, purpose, and unconditional love
for each of us.
Spiritual services dedicated to silence are profound as no
service full of words and music can be.
The silence creates anticipation, acceptance, a sense of belonging, and intimacy.
With it comes the knowledge of belonging to God and to each other.
Create space to listen to the words our Creator longs to speak
to each of us, trust God.
