In this noisy, chaotic world, we need to find spaces of silence. Silence for meditation. Silence for pondering. Silence for listening. Silence for peace.
Mother Teresa in "No Greater Love" said:
“We cannot find God in noise and agitation.
Nature: trees, flowers, and grass grow in silence. The stars, the moon, and the sun move in silence.
What is essential is not what we say but what God tells us and what He tells others through us.
In silence He listens to us; in silence He speaks to our souls.
In silence we are granted the privilege of listening to His voice.
Silence of our eyes.
Silence of our ears.
Silence of our mouths.
Silence of our minds.
…in the silence of the heart
God will speak.”
Today, find a space for silence. Breathe slowly and deeply. Discover the peace that exists in quiet moments.
