    art of being silence

    the more i want all this to go away..
    the more i want to not keep silence..
    the more i want to keep my mind busy and occupied..

    simply because i don't know what will happen when i stay silence..
    and perhaps.. my heart knows clearly that God wants to speak.. but i am refusing to listen...

    the world has flooded us with noise.. loud music.. constant sound that would not go away...
    given the chance to seat down and remain silent has been a priviledge.. but more than often.. we don't want and try to avoid this silence...

    why can't we stand silence?...
    have we been 'trained' since young to not be able to stand silence?..
    God speaks in our quiet moments..
    have we lost the desire to listen to Him?...

    are we tuning our ears and heart to listen to Him?...
    are we ready to listen to what he has to say to us?..

    do we fear what God is trying to tell us?..
    why do we fear?
    is it because we know what God wants to tell us.. so we avoid it..
    and at the end of the day, give the excuse that you don't know?...

    my heart is tired...
    my mind is weak...
    my soul is dry..
    my body is exhuasted...

    and is all because i have not depended on Him.....
