He Speaks

You rule the oceans when their waves arise in fearful storms; You speak and they lie still. Psalm 89:9


Mother Teresa said, “In the silence of the heart God speaks.”

God speaks in whispers.

Whispers that are barely audible.

Whispers that you can hear only with a heart that leans in.

What do I mean?

A heart that leans in is a heart that is hungry for, searching for, something MORE.

It is a heart thirsty and desperate.

It is a heart not afraid of silence.

It is a heart willing to be still and wait.

A heart wanting to listen and listen hard.

A heart that leans in and wants more than the empty chaos and noise this world offers…

More than its own heart’s futile thoughts and opinions.

A heart that leans into the unseen world waiting and listening for God’s something MORE.

A Promise From God

A heart that seeks God...

Is a heart that finds God.

You will find me when you seek me, if you look for me in earnest.

Yes, says the Lord, I will be found by you, and I will end your slavery and restore your fortunes; I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and bring you back home again to your own land. Jeremiah 29: 13-14 TLB

In the silence of the heart God speaks. —Mother Teresa
