The quiet voice, the softly spoken word attracts attention, touches the heart, and opens the spirit to wisdom.
While the booming voice, which bellows out commands or curses, certainly grabs our attention for the moment, this often will turn us off.
As a sage wrote in Psalm 37:30 “The mouth of the honest person murmurs wisdom.”
The gentleness of the murmur
carries a strength and subtleness which
entices,
beckons, and
draws us
to a deeper sense of
the importance of life,
the present moment, and
the future.
