Gloria Phifer
It seems there is always noise.
It is not deafening but a constant blur in the background.
Usually, it is the television. Or a cell phone ringing.
It also seems like our world is moving faster and faster.
I sat on my couch one morning and sat in silence. Sometimes it is hard to get into quietness. The silence seems so strange. Shouldn't I be doing something? Praying? Reading The Bible?
As I sat there, I knew I was waiting on The Lord. And I began to feel the peace...the quietness...the strength coming in...waiting...listening.
Many years ago The Lord gave me a song..."I hear You speak to me in the silence of my heart. I hear you call to me...come rest in Me."
I want to be still before The Lord...in the quietness...to hear His Voice in the silence ...the stillness of my heart.
Isaiah 40:31 "They that wait upon The Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."
Psalm 46:10 "Be still and know that I Am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
I have joined the FMF bloggers we write on one word for 5 min. The word was "Silence."
