“Be still, and know that I am God!” (Psalm 46:10a NLT)
Once Mother Teresa was asked, "When you pray, what do you say to God?" She answered, "I don't say anything; I listen!"
Intrigued the inquirer asked, "When you pray, what does God say to you?" Mother Teresa's answer was, "He doesn't say anything. He listens!"
It is in such listening that we hear the soft, still voice that, paradoxically, says nothing. But the stillness in such times of prayer moves more powerfully than an earthquake, a hurricane, or a raging forest fire.
