A Quiet Moment

There comes a time when we all need to sit down an be quiet. Humanity is always wondering where God is, when all we really need to do is close our mouths and listen.

"Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is considered wise; When he closes his lips, he is considered prudent." Proverbs 17:28

Earth is full of so many people that just endlessly babble! Through Twitter, Facebook and MySpace. Even in person, there are those people that could talk to a wall for hours without ever running out of things to say. Why is it so hard for us to be silent?

It is because humans need to feel as though they are something. The louder a noise we make, the more attention we get, and the more of a "someone" we feel. If we really have a grounding in Jesus Christ, that He died for us, has given us new life, identity and purpose, we have no need to draw attention to ourselves to make us "feel like someone". We are SOMEONE in Jesus Christ.

So I encourage you, enjoy the quiet moments. It is in these moments that we hear God the loudest.
