Описание: •WELCOME TO THE PARTY!

Ever feel like your prayers are being left on "read"? Silence is incredibly frustrating, but it doesn’t always mean you’re being ignored—sometimes the most important work happens when things are quiet.

💡Key Takeaways

• Silence creates space for you to reset your internal rhythm even when life feels chaotic.

• Just because you can't hear God moving doesn't mean He isn't working on your behalf.

• Stillness is an internal posture of trust, while silence is just the absence of noise.

• Your current waiting period is often setting the stage for your next big breakthrough.

• Don't let a lack of immediate feedback trick you into thinking you've been abandoned.

We live in a world that is obsessed with noise and constant feedback. If we aren’t getting a notification, a text back, or a clear sign immediately, we tend to spiral and assume the worst. But there is a massive difference between silence and stillness. In this video, we unpack the history behind the world’s most famous Christmas carol and look at a specific 400-year gap in history where absolutely nothing seemed to be happening.

It turns out that during that "silent" era, the stage was actually being set for the most important events in history. Whether you are navigating a quarter-life crisis, feeling stuck in your career, or just burned out from the holiday hustle, this message is a reminder that a lack of noise doesn't equal a lack of progress. We’ll look at how to stop equating your feelings with facts and how to find actual peace when everything feels uncertain. You don’t need to fill every quiet moment with distraction. Sometimes, you just need to trust the process and realize that the silence isn’t a punishment—it’s preparation.
