Soul Snack 8/117 ... Soul Pizza

My imagination believes them. They see that 'sex' sells. Obviously they are correct.

'Security' sells, so too 'significance'. These are 3 of modern man's major spiritual food groups. (They are to be consumed both frequently and copiously we are taught.)

Each shops for what we believe we need for own 'soul survival'.

Amidst our shopping, 'silence' MUST rise to near the top of our buying list.

BUT:


Shops can't sell silence.

Manufacturers can't box silence.

Marketers can't photograph silence.

YET:


Silence is available, accessible and strangely audible to those who would go shopping for it.

Only in silence can I hear His whispers, in solitude feel His presence and in sitting receive His satisfaction.

Sitting quietly in a place lacking interruption, gently sliding into the silent stillness of His presence is to be savoured daily. Today I then enjoy, and tomorrow then looks so good.

Silence is the conduit of His presence.

Enjoy silence today, it is the pizza of the soul.

But the LORD is in his holy temple; let all the earth be silent before him." Hab. 2:20
