We talk too much, listen but little, move too quickly, and all without purpose. We wish somehow to fill the empty spaces which can only be filled and satisfied with quietude. Laconic brevity will try and make wisdom the tradeoff for quietude, yet even smouldering wit will not assauge the the deep need to connect with God through the perfect humility and submission of solicitude.

There is a profundity in stillness that cannot be expressed in words. It can only be caught not taught. It is caught by intentionally pacing yourself to the same cadence as that still quiet place you have found and attempting to match it's lack of meaningless activity. Settle your heart on that which does not move. Stillness and tranquility will move you and your subsequent first motion will be done in faith and in reverence.

Motion produces chaos unless motivated by intentional design and purpose distilled in silence. Allow God to imprint on your heart his instruction. Jesus said,"My sheep know my voice." Elsewhere Isaiah said," You will hear a voice behind you saying,' This is the way; walk in it'"

Tranquility is illusive to those addicted to motion. The Psalmist wrote," Be still and know I am God"also," I have stilled and quieted my soul like a just weaned child...." Wean yourself from the nuerosis of pointless activity and allow God in quietude to speak once again to your anxious heart.
