SILENCE

A Sioux Native American once wrote that 'Silence is the voice of God'. That is a deep and true insight which can transform our attitude to prayer. Do not listen firstly for words or messages from God. Simply listen to God in the silence speaking himself to you, giving himself to you, pouring out himself upon you. Be there in the silence, surrounded by God, immersed in God, and soaking in the presence of God which enfolds you.
