Seeking God Through Silence
Seeking God Through Silence
This week, Fr. Anthony explains how we can more clearly hear God speak to us in our hearts, but perhaps not in the way you think! By practicing being silent and still and flushing out everyday secular cares, we may be able to hear what God wants from us, rather than what the world wants from us.

In Proverbs 8, Scripture reveals a tender mystery: before the world began, the Eternal Son “was beside Him… playing before Him at all times.” Before creation, before the angels, Jesus rejoiced in the Father’s presence with the freedom of a child. Fr. Anthony reminds us that this childlike joy is not optional—it is essential to the spiritual life. “Unless you become like little children, you will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven” (Mt 18:3).
Fr. Anthony reflects on the Magnificat, Mary’s prayer of praise and thanksgiving, to discover how her humility, faith, and trust in God reveal the heart of Divine Mercy—and how we, too, are called to give glory to God for the blessings in our lives.
