Job 40:4-5
English Standard Version (ESV)
We often tell children to listen more than they speak, because they have two ears and one mouth. Me? I'd just be happy if my children talked at a regular volume and didn't shout all the time!
We all love the sound of our own voice, and we fall into the trap of our prayer lives becoming wish lists of things God needs to do to make our lives better. Often, what we really need to do is to learn to be still before God. In our lives, we spend so much time posting our lives, posting our moments and thoughts on social media, shouting into the whirlwind, that we need time to be still, to let God speak to us, to be silent and listen. How else should we expect to hear what God has to say to us?
