Advent as a Mom: Creating Space for Silence

The Better Part - Intentional Living for Christian Moms with a Bible-Loving Catholic Mama

This Advent, we are talking about three main aspects of Jesus' hidden life (all the life He lived before going into His ministry on earth), and trying to bring those things into our lives this Advent. The first of these is SILENCE.

Silence is hard to come by as a mom in the western world in the 21st century! We are inundated by NOISE and expected to make NOISE. But most of Jesus' life was spent with no large following and no major milestones. There are no miracles recorded at all and it would seem that he was hardly known outside of Nazareth.

We can learn from this virtual silence that Jesus lived in. Silence is where we can:

1. Hear God easier
2. Think clearer
3. Be less distracted from the call Jesus gives us as mothers

Is God calling you to bring more silence into your life? Listen in for some practical ideas on how!
