I ‘m writing this post at 11:00 pm and the rest of the family is sound asleep.  I did this because I knew it would be quiet.  Sometimes quiet is a life-theme that I need to return to.
God says in Psalm 46:10, “Be still, and know that I am God!” (NIV)  Frankly, I’ve been busy and my life has been loud lately.  I was starting to feel a bit disconnected from my Heavenly Father, so I’ve been doing a lot of praying and listening.  I find that when I cut out the noise of life I’m much more able to hear God’s still small voice and it draws me closer to Him.

So my challenge for you today is to turn off the TV, the Radio, your phone, your computer (as I’m going to do in a moment) and listen.  Drive in silence…listen to God.  Work in silence…listen to God.  Take a walk in silence…listen to God.

When life is quiet you’ll hear His voice, and His voice is sweet.
