Wait for It

Silence is nothing else but waiting for God’s Word and coming from God’s Word with a blessing. But everybody knows that this is something that needs to be practiced and learned, in these days when talkativeness prevails. Real silence, real stillness, really holding one’s tongue comes only as the sober consequence of spiritual stillness.

Meditation

There are three purposes for which the Christian needs a definite time when he can be alone during the day: Scripture meditation, prayer, and intercession. All three should have their place in the daily period of meditation. The word “meditation” should not frighten us. It is an ancient concept of the Church and of the Reformation that we are beginning again to rediscover.

Desiring God

Let me seek Thee in longing, let me long for Thee in seeking; let me find Thee in love, and love Thee in finding.
