Are we in the middle of a silent era from God? A look at world events and our personal lives makes a strong case for the affirmative, but the scriptures invite us to engage with a living God - especially in times when this God seems distant and removed.
Journaling Prompts:
Have you ever been surprised by a living God? What was that experience like?
Where in life are you tempted to take on God’s work as your own?
God loves us and shows us the way of love. How can you put this into practice this week?
Practice - pray.
The world is quite noisy at the moment. Make a plan to be still before God this week. Perhaps you have 5 minutes or maybe 35, but make a plan and set aside distractions for a specified amount of time.
Spend some time in silence. There is no need to produce anything in these moments.
Pray the serenity prayer: "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference."
From there, just talk to God. Bring your burdens to God; God cares for you.
