Comments on: The Sound of Silence http://www.theresatrotter.com/2009/12/09/the-sound-of-silence/ Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days, keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies. Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. -Psalm 34:12-14 Fri, 21 Oct 2011 14:28:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: Danielle http://www.theresatrotter.com/2009/12/09/the-sound-of-silence/comment-page-1/#comment-1416 Danielle Thu, 10 Dec 2009 06:16:58 +0000 http://www.theresatrotter.com/?p=1275#comment-1416 I want to cry - it makes me sad to know I spend way too little time trying to hear this. Some other things I want to tell you. Remember our conversation about prayer? Embarrassment of prayer in front of others? I go to Church on Sunday - They start service with a 5th grader on stage, eyes closed, head bowed giving the opening prayer. - WOW, what a slap in the face. But - to top it off. Service is over, a 16 year old boy comes on stage and presents the closing prayer AND closing comments. It all happen at the perfect time, but made me feel like such a fool. Last thing I want to say - my new Google reader account, it doesn't update yours.... :( I might need to play with it... I want to cry – it makes me sad to know I spend way too little time trying to hear this.

Listening for God in the stillness of my day...that's why I get up before my family..to hear God in the silence. Beautiful words, Theresa.
