The Quiet
When was the last time you experienced quiet? Stillness? I love the mountains and the woods as these are places that it seems easiest to pause, to be still and listen to the quiet. Sometimes the best time to experience the quiet in the wee morning hours when all is silent or when the snow falls and there is a certain hush throughout the neighborhood. Why do I think this is so important? When we are quiet and at rest, with no outside distractions, we hear that voice inside us that much clearer. You know that voice for which I am referring. It is telling us something new or helpful if we listen, but it is not always easy to hear and it is not always clear but it is there to guide us. We begin to hear our heartbeat and our breath and then that voice and we know we are closer to God. He uses this time to send us unfiltered thought and guidance. We just need to be still and be ready to listen to the quiet.
