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.

The Gospel presents a man described as “full of leprosy.” Not partially wounded. Not mildly afflicted. Completely sick. And yet this is the man who is healed — because he approaches Jesus correctly.
Father Anthony Gramlich, MIC, explains that Scripture reveals three responses to spiritual leprosy. The first is pride: refusing to see one’s own sin while accusing everyone else. This leprosy cannot be healed because it denies the wound. The second is despair: seeing the sin clearly but believing mercy is impossible. This leprosy turns inward and never reaches the Physician.
Father Anthony explains that God’s covenant with Noah assures us that we can look to God for the rainbow after life’s storms.
