Hearing in the Silence

In today’s non-stop society of over-communication, it is often hard to find a moment to just stop, breathe and be quiet.  Between cell phones, tablets, Facebook, Twitter and television, we are constantly being bombarded.  Add to that all of our “mind noise” fretting over the past and worrying about the future, it’s a wonder we have any peace at all.  But if we can make a conscious effort to be still and be quiet, it’s amazing what we will hear.  Listen to the beauty of nature all around you.  Listen to your heart telling you your purpose.  And listen to God telling you how to get there.  When you are quiet, spending a little time meditating (listening to God) rather than always praying (telling God what you want) you will find that you line up with your inner power, inner energy and get into a powerful vortex where your life magically unfolds, just as you had imagined it would.  Have you quieted your mind today?
