This is the fifth and final article on ROOTS. Today we will look at the fifth letter in ROOTS— S. I will define S as SILENCE/ STILLNESS.

”Silence is to sound, what stillness is to movement.”

Rev Wildfire

Silence and stillness are very similar in nature. The truth is a lot of times we are too busy and noisy to hear God. If you can’t hear Him you will never know Him. 

These two are vital in order to grow strong ROOTS. Let’s look at this verse. 

“Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.” ~Psalm 46:10

In the above scripture I want to also point out that it is in the stillness and silence you become more aware of God. There is a shift that happens in your focus. 

No longer is your mind buzzing with all the problems of life. Now you are more conscious of the Almighty!  He is exalted in your heart and your thoughts are now aligned with Heaven. In this way you will become more fruitful. 

Stop everything. Sit and be still in silence. Allow your mind to become more aware of Him! Exalt Him in your heart. And you will bear more fruit!
