There are times when we may feel like we need to have the last word. That "last word" may be in person, through text, or a social media post. We can get caught up in all the chatter and the need to be heard. However, we may need to listen. As the poet Rumi wrote, "Listen to silence. It has so much to say."
Sometimes when we feel we need to be heard by the world, we need ot reassess our approach. God is ready to hear us. We may only need to be heard by Him. We can pray and talk to God. We can ask Him for guidance. As we hear God's will, we can know how to respond. There are times when we may be called to speak out and to support those that are often silenced. However, there are other times when we need ot be silent so God can fight for us. Talking to God can help us to know when we only have to be silent!
Talk to God and know what He is calling you to do - speak out or be silent and let Him fight!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for always listening to me. Help me to listen to You and to know if I need to speak out or be silent to let You fight. In Jesus I pray, amen.
