Silence

Today I asked Wyatt what cool things God has been teaching him lately.  He showed me a quote from a book he is reading called Enjoy the Silence.  “Silence is God’s first language; everything else is a poor translation.  In order to hear the language, we must learn to be still and to rest in God.”  -Thomas Keating (1923)

I asked him what that meant to him and he replied:  ”God doesn’t work through the busyness of everyday life, but he works through the silence of focusing on him.”

I love it when my kids teach me things!

Love you

Rachel
