Silence speaks when words can't

"We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls." Mother Teresa

For a while now I've been "quiet".. haven't been inspired to write. But deep inside my heart there's a voice screaming, needing to write some. As I wondered what to write about, "silence" came to my mind. I found this quote, and it is so true! God lives in the quietness of our heart. How else can we hear Him, if we're not silent? The truth is that when we are silent, the devil tries to distract us.. so, we keep talking, because when we talk, we fill the silence with noise and we can not hear His whisper, and it seems that the devil wins that battle lots of times, BUT if we allow the Holy Spirit to  guide us, He will bring us back to silence, so that we could stay in His presence and enjoy everything that He has to tell us. How amazing it is to listen to His voice and understand what He tells you! I am thankful for all this time of "silence" in my life. I am blessed beyond measure.

For me, YOUR peace in my heart is more important than peoples' ovation.
