Silence

 


Lent has officially begun. 

 

Throughout the season of Lent, we will be offering a Word of the Day Devotional. 

 

Each day we will be posting a word of the day for you (youth and adults!) to spend some time contemplating. 

 

We will include guiding questions along with each word. 

 

Today’s word is Silence. 

 

What comes to mind when you think of silence? 

Are you comfortable with silence? 

Or does silence make you uncomfortable? 

Where do you go when you’re in need of silence?

What is God up to in the silence?

Journey

  Journey.  What comes to mind when you think of the word journey? What journey (or journeys!) are you currently on? In the Book of Genesis, the word journey shows up a lot and there are a lot of journeys taking place. Take a peek around Genesis. Where do you see journeys taking place? What is happening? Who is involved? In what ways is God showing up or not showing up during these journeys?

Adventure

  Adventure.   And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of people.” (Mark 1:17)   “Follow me.” Jesus invites the disciples to join him on a transformative adventure. It is an adventure that we’ve been invited to join as well.    How might Jesus be inviting you to follow him? What adventure(s) are you currently on? What adventure(s) do you hope to pursue?

Curiosity.

  Curiosity.   “There the angel of the Lord appeared to [Moses] in a flame of fire out of a bush; he looked, and the bush was blazing, yet it was not consumed.  Then Moses said, “I must turn aside and look at this great sight and see why the bush is not burned up.” (Exodus 3:2-3)   What are you currently feeling curious about?  When in your life have you experienced the need to “turn aside” and see what is happening? Have you ever had a “burning bush” moment in your life?
