The Big Idea:
Solitude and silence before the Lord are helpful because it quietens our soul. Even if you find a place to be alone and there is no external noise, you still have to quieten the noise inside. Within us, there are the sounds of stress, anxiety, fear, and worry. Sometimes it’s harder to silence the inner noise than it is the external.
Main Points:
1. Our days are long and full. They are filled with activity and conversation. Rarely, do we find the time to be still and quiet.
2. In our silence, God is not silent. He speaks wonderfully and powerfully to our hearts and these are the words we desperately need to hear.
3. We must make sure that God’s voice is the loudest voice in our lives, but when we are listening to so much eternal noise, God’s voice often gets faded out.
