It is a way of interiority, of stopping and then of exploring the cellars of the heart and the center of life. It is a way of entering within, so that we do not ultimately go without. Silence is never merely a cessation of words; that would be too restrictive and too negative a definition of silence. Rather, it is the pause that holds together\u2013indeed, it makes sense of\u2013all the words, both spoken and unspoken. Silence is the glue that connects our attitudes and our actions. Silence is fullness, not emptiness; it is not an absence, but the awareness of a presence\u201d<br \/>\n<\/em>\u2013 John Chryssavgis, <em>In the Heart of the Desert<\/em>, pp.45-46.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><strong>Step 1: Settling down (Voices without)<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Find a conducive spot in your home where you may sit down comfortably for a while.<\/li>\n<li>Take a few deep breaths to settle down a little. You may wish to close your eyes.<\/li>\n<li>As you do, pay attention to what you are hearing. Listen to the sounds around you. They may be the sounds of children at play, spouses at work, birds chirping, the refrigerator\u2019s gurgling or the noise from a hair dryer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Tuning in (Voices within)<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pay attention to what is going on within you. These are voices from within your mind and heart.<\/li>\n<li>They may be triggered by a sound from the outside\u2013the children\u2019s click on the keyboard, for instance, may remind you of the work you have yet to complete.<\/li>\n<li>Or they may be triggered by a thought from within\u2013a memory surfaces and it triggers an emotion of regret, fear, or some measure of anxiety.<\/li>\n<li>Be alert to them. Do not try to shut them out of your mind and heart. Acknowledge their presence and commit them to God in prayer. Should you so wish, you may pray the following prayer:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cO Lord, I come to You just as I am. I commit to You these voices. Still them as Jesus stilled the storm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Resourcing (Turning to Scripture)<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Turn to the Word of God after you have noticed some of these voices<\/li>\n<li>Let the Word speak to you as you read it slowly.<\/li>\n<li>We have chosen <strong><em>Psalm 62<\/em><\/strong> for our theme <strong><em>\u201cResting in God: the Practice of Silence&#8221;<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Read Psalm 62:1-2 slowly in the New International Version:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Truly my soul finds rest in God;<br \/>\n<\/em><em>my salvation comes from him.<br \/>\n<\/em><em>Truly he is my rock and my salvation;<br \/>\n<\/em><em>he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Read the two verses slowly a second time, but now in the English Standard Version:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>For God alone my soul waits in silence;<br \/>\nfrom him comes my salvation.<br \/>\n<\/em><em>He alone is my rock and my salvation,<br \/>\nmy fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken.<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The two versions of Ps 62:1-2 help us to appreciate that resting in God involves a time where we wait in silence before God. We wait in silence for God to save us.<\/li>\n<li>The psalmist appears to be someone in a place of weakness (v.3) even though he may have previously enjoyed a position of strength (v.4). These verses may help you to reflect on your current situation.<\/li>\n<li>Take a few minutes to read through the entire psalm slowly in any version of your choice.
