You Matched with the Contemplative Rhythm Silence and Stillness!
THE RESULTS ARE IN, AND YOUR CONTEMPLATIVE RYTHYM IS…
Your soul is most alive when the noise fades and stillness returns. Silence invites you to rest—fully, gently, without pressure. In the quiet, you hear God's tenderness with unusual clarity.
You don't need many words to feel close to Him. You simply need space.
Silence and Stillness
You're someone who feels things deeply. The noise of the world affects you in ways it doesn't seem to affect other people. A busy room exhausts you. The ping of notifications, the endless demands—it all wears on you.
You're not antisocial. You're just sensitive. You need quiet the way other people need coffee. It restores you.
And in the quiet, you feel God. Not always in dramatic ways, but in the gentle knowing that He's there. In the peace that descends when you finally stop moving, stop talking, stop trying to manage everything.
WORDS THAT COULD DESCRIBE YOU
WHY STILLNESS IS YOUR NECESSITY
This Practice Fits You Because…
Your spirit gets overwhelmed by chaos or overthinking—too much input, and you shut down.
You're deeply intuitive—silence is where your intuition can speak clearly.
You crave peace more than stimulation—while others are energized by activity, you're energized by calm.
You need regular silence not just to connect with God, but to function well in life.
You've learned to see your sensitivity as a gift that allows you to hear what others miss.
THE COUNTERCULTURAL CHOICE
Silence and stillness have been central to Christian spirituality from the beginning. Jesus withdrew to lonely places to pray. The desert fathers and mothers went into the wilderness to find God in the silence.
The Psalmist wrote: "Be still, and know that I am God." Not "be busy and know." Not "be productive and know." Be still.
Our world glorifies busyness and noise, but you know something the world doesn't: that in the silence, something sacred happens. You stop performing. You stop striving. You stop trying to figure everything out. And in that stillness, God's presence becomes real in a way it never can when you're moving too fast.
The more you practice silence, the more you'll carry that peace with you. Even when you can't physically withdraw, you'll have an inner stillness that no amount of noise can disturb.
🎧 Try Your First Contemplative Encounter:
"In the Quiet, Holding Jesus' Hand"
“In the Quiet, Holding Jesus' Hand" was created for women like you—women who know that God speaks most clearly in the still, quiet moments, away from all the noise and bustle.
This encounter will guide you into the practice Jesus himself lived:
"But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed" (Luke 5:16).
A Quick Sneak Peek at the Practice:
Notice that Jesus had to withdraw. He had to be intentional about it. He had to leave the crowds, leave the demands. You have to choose it too. Because the world will not give silence to you. You have to fight for the quiet. You have to create it. You have to protect it.
This encounter teaches you how to withdraw, how to find those lonely places where you can simply be with God:
Holding His hand in the quiet, without words, without agenda, without noise.
You'll learn that silence isn't empty. It's full. Full of God's presence. Full of peace. Full of the kind of rest that goes deeper than sleep.
In the silence, your soul finally exhales. The racing thoughts slow down. The anxiety quiets.
This is the gift of silence. It's about being. Being loved. Being held. Being enough exactly as you are.
The Long-Term Gift: Your Inner Sanctuary
After you complete "In the Quiet, Holding Jesus' Hand," you'll have a practice that becomes a lifeline. When life gets too loud, too fast, too overwhelming, you'll know how to find the quiet. You'll know how to create a sanctuary of silence, even in the middle of chaos.
You'll learn to protect your need for silence without apologizing for it. You'll embrace your need for stillness as a gift, not a flaw.
And here's what will happen: the more you practice silence, the more you'll carry that peace with you. Even when you can't physically withdraw, you'll have an inner stillness that no amount of noise can disturb. You'll be able to find God in the middle of a busy day—because you've trained yourself to recognize His presence in the quiet.
Silence and stillness will become your anchor. The practice that keeps you sane, grounded, and connected to the only One who can truly restore your soul.
