"Since God rarely shouts His message but most often whispers it, it is essential to become disciplined in the art of solitude - learning to become still so we can hear what God is whispering to us (Psalm 46:10). Far too often our confusion about hearing and discerning the voice of God comes not because God mumbles or doesn't speak clearly or chooses to hide among other voices, but because we haven't turned down the volume of our daily lives to hear what God is saying. We tend to demand that God raise His decibel level; He in turn calls us to slow down, be quiet, and learn to hear His clear-but-soft voice."
