Dawn is breaking over Glendale, Arizona and I have the sheer delight
of a peaceful household and really good iced coffee. Silence is perhaps
one of my most treasured possessions. It gives me the permission to be
completely wholehearted in what I am doing, without multitasking,
interruptions or distractions.
Silence helps me to hear
the whispers of the Holy Spirit without trying to hush anyone else. It
provides a platform for clear thinking and Biblical meditation. It
soothes the over stimulated nerves and allows me to focus in.
In
silence, I am able to observe my surroundings with a quiet and fresh
vision. In quietness and rest am I most clearly able to appreciate the
beauty of my habitation and the eternal significance of my
circumstances. Silence is calming, soothing, refreshing, and inspiring.
I
begin my day in gratitude to my King for new mercies, but first, I
relish in the quietness provided for me. There's no gushing, no noise,
and no distractions. Just the pleasure of resting in His presence.
