"Lord, the Scripture says: “There is a time for silence and a time for speech.” Savior, teach me the silence of humility, the silence of wisdom, the silence of love, the silence of perfection, the silence that speaks without words, the silence of faith. Lord, teach me to silence my own heart that I may listen to the gentle movement of the Holy Spirit within me and sense the depths which are of God."
- Frankfurt prayer

Silence


"Live among men as if God beheld you; speak to God as if men were listening."
- Lucius Annaeus Seneca

"The unexamined life is not worth living."
- Socrates

God, Why Are You Hiding?

When I reflect on the days when my daughter was a toddler, there is a scene that still brings a smile to my face. She could not have been more than eighteen months old, but what intuition she had already developed. My wife and I were busy doing chores around the house when it dawned […]

Nine Lessons We Learn From Failure

I’ve had plenty of success in my ‘career’ in ministry. Probably too much for my own good. But I’ve had a few whopping failures too, the most recent being a six-year attempt to resurrect my denomination’s Sunday schools. However, all failure is not loss. Even failures can be successful, if we learn from them. What […]
