By the way.... This here sounds like a worshipper of creation... NOT the Creator. See Below for what i mean.

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls. (Mother Theresa)
 
As I ponder my last statement... I am reminded of the verse "Be Still and Know That I am God" To be still is to be silent. So maybe I mis-spoke. besides Mother Theresa Is awesome. :o
 
Lol, I am not exactly worshiping creation in that manner.. Mother Theresa was basically saying that God works in silence sometimes and that silence is necessary. I use that as my signature to remind me of this. My life has very few moments of silence. Everything is rush, rush, noise and more noise, never stopping to admire the small, silent things. Also, have you ever noticed that when you pray in silence, you think of things differently and 'hear' answers better?
Even though silent moments are necessary in everyone's life, noise does have it's purpose. My band chooses to use our voices and instruments in a way that not only is noisy, but also praises the Lord. And yes, most of our songs mention peaceful atmospheres or creation, but by singing about creation, we glorify the creator. For who else can make creation as beautiful, and intricate as he? He is reflected in everything he creates, so by singing of those things, we are singing of him. :)
 
They do. I was having a super runny nose day that day. Blasted allergies!
