A very helpful spiritual discipline is silence. For most of us, this is really hard. We tend to fill up any silence with actions, words, music and constant interactions with our smartphones! It takes practice but it is good to get comfortable with silence. Sometimes it is in the silence where we can experience God’s presence more fully. We can hear that “still small voice in silence”.
So, lets practice some silence. When you hit the button below, a window will popup with a beach scene, Imagine you are sitting in a beach chair on the sand and the water is washing up onto your feet. The scene will last for 1 minute and then will close. See how practicing one minute of silence goes for you. When the scene appears, there will be no countdown clock! You just have to trust me that the window will close after one minute.
