Silence allows us the space and quiet to pay attention to God. The approaching season of Lent is a great time to practice silence in prayer, but there’s no reason to wait to embrace the silence.

Silence
Silence speaks to the character of God, the essence and nature of God, in a way that words, songs, and writing do not. It creates room for awe, which the Church teaches us is really the only appropriate response to a real encounter with God. But this silence is not simply an hour spent here or there in adoration—though that’s a good thing to do: it is more of a posture to be drawn into all of life.
