Turn It Off

We are besieged by noise. Even in the relative quiet of an unoccupied room with only a computer as your friend. Even there the computer hums.

Sometimes you just have to get unplugged. Turn off the phone. Mute the tweets. Let facebook exist without your status updates. Turn the ipod, TV, and Wii off.

In all of my years of spiritual searching, in all my time groping for a sense of God's presence I have never found a deeper way to be touched by the Spirit than through silence.
