Have you ever prayed, waited, cried… and still heard nothing?
If you’ve ever walked through a season where God feels distant where the heavens feel shut and your soul feels stuck you’re not alone.
We all go through these moments. Moments where it feels like God is quiet, and the silence is heavy.
But here’s the truth: God’s silence is never His absence.
The Silent Seasons Are Not Empty
We’re often tempted to believe silence means God has forgotten us. But more often than not, God is working behind the scenes in the silence. Think of it like a seed buried in the soil. Just because you can’t see what’s happening doesn’t mean growth isn’t taking place.
Sometimes God is silent because:
He’s inviting us to grow in trust
He’s working out things we can’t yet understand
He’s developing strength and character in us
He’s teaching us to listen in new ways
Remember Elijah in 1 Kings 19? He expected God in the wind, the earthquake, and the fire.
But God came in a gentle whisper.
God doesn’t always shout. Sometimes, He whispers and sometimes, He waits.
Thank you
