 Healing Silence by A. W. Tozer

Healing Silence
by A. W. Tozer


And when He had sent them away, He departed to the mountain to pray. --Mark 6:46

Very few of us know the secret of bathing our souls in silence. It was a secret our Lord Jesus Christ knew very well. There were times when He had to send the multitudes away so He could retire alone into the silence of the mountainside. There He would turn the God-ward side of His soul toward heaven and for a long time expose Himself to the face of His Father in heaven....

My eyes and ears and spirit are aware of the immaturities in the so-called evangelicalism of our time. The more noise we make, the happier we seem to be. All of the signs of immaturity are among us.

We are seeing a general abhorrence of being alone, of being silent before the Lord. We shrink from allowing our souls to be bathed in the healing silences. Men Who Met God, 103-104.

"Father, we've focused for several days on the need for solitude and silence. Grant that we might not forsake the quest until we have really mastered this discipline, no matter how busy our lives continue to be. Amen."
