If love were easy it would be for everyone but the story is different, the Bible teaches us that love is long-suffering, benign, it is not boastful, it does not do anything unduly, it is not puffed up, and therefore it is so difficult to experience it, the high price that the lover must pay to live it in his own flesh is not for everyone; Jesus inspires the life of everyone who today suffers love, being King humiliated so that we slaves of sin live in freedom by his death.
The one who loves in silence keeps the respect for the person that he admires or wishes to have in his life, in other words he limits himself so as not to offend, complicate or bother; despite wanting to exercise presence or authority in life in that relationship, he prefers the anonymity that notoriety, the one who loves in silence, is interested in the well-being of the other without incurring in notoriety for it keeps distance but not only renounces his arrogance but also to his own comfort, he sacrifices the beauty of his life to give life to the beauty he feels in his heart.
Loving in silence is an art that not all dominate, since today's love is full of lust, sensuality, selfishness, convenience, lack of decency and to that we add a few drops of arrogance or misnamed self-esteem are few who are willing to sacrifice for love, on the contrary many sacrifice who they say they love by passing over their children, family and feelings; Do not forget that love is synonymous with sacrifice and not convenience, to love you must renounce yourself.
Isaiah 53: 7 Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960)
He was distressed and afflicted, he did not open his mouth; as a lamb he was taken to the slaughterhouse; and as a sheep before his shearers, he fell silent, and did not open his mouth.
This is the greatest representation of a Love in silence, the one that loved us without measures, in an opportunity Jesus said: Nobody takes my life, I give it myself and then take it again, to rescue many. How great love!
There is a song that I like very much is called: if it had been there of Jesus Adrian Romero, it describes that each of us was guilty even if we were not there, it is a reflection about his surrender of his love in silence.
If I had been there among the crowd
That your death asked, that I crucify you
I have to admit, I would have also
Nailed to that cross
Your hands my Jesus, if I had been there
Thinking about it, I was also there
I was the one who spit on you, and your side hurt
Thinking it over,
I was the one with the crown of thorns and pain
Your forehead good sir, I was also there
If he had been there at the foot of that cross
Listening to you cry, to the father in solitude
I have to admit, I would have you too
Let it die, watching you suffer
I was also there
Thinking about it, I was also there
I was the one who spit on you, and your side hurt
Thinking it over, I was the one with the crown of thorns and pain
Your good Lord front
Thinking it over, I was also there
I was the one who hit you, and you sneered
Thinking about it, I was the one who whipped you
I was the one who lamented your back my lord
I was also there
In the midst of loneliness, in the middle of nowhere and in real sadness
I feel that I can still do a little more, I just have to make an effort to reach your outstretched hand. And everything blinds me, everything wants to lead me to despair
and to a cry without end but I know that you will not allow it. I know something you are doing already ...
while I do not know the plan silently you are putting together what you will surprise me with.
Callas of love for me to be stronger,
shut up to take out everything that does not do me good,
shut up to show me that you are not only words,
shut up for me to see how much you love me.
Your silence is good for me.
"Oh God, do not shut up, do not shut up, oh God, do not stand still."
Psalm 83: 1
Is not it amazing? As things can get out of control, it seems that one day everything is normal and normality will doubt forever and the next day is the opposite and it seems that we will never abandon that fearsome desert.
The most complicated of those desert moments is the loneliness that we have to live, the feeling that God has forgotten us, the spiritual thirst and that we can not satisfy, and feel that we no longer have strength.
But even with all of that, we must never forget that God will never leave us. And it seems that sometimes God keeps more silence than necessary, however much we search we do not find a Word, although we long for things, they do not happen and it is difficult when we are far from seeing what was promised, we see the opposite.
I know that they are the silences of God, I have lived them, I have experienced them and now I am here, they are difficult, difficult, exhausting, but the best thing of all is that I learned all this, always after a SILENCE stage there always comes another of abundant blessings .
Apparently God is evaluating how far we can stand his silences, and it is not that the Lord is torturing us, but that he wants to mold our life, character, our faith and he is sure that after this stage we will be better people than before. .
My brothers, if I told you all the stages of silence that I had to go through in my life, you would not believe them, but it is reality. Sometimes I have felt that God is too busy to pay attention to my plans, to my dreams, to moments when prayers feel so empty, where the mood has deteriorated and everything seems to be against. Until my health I have lost.
But let me tell you that even if you feel all that, that you experience one of the moments of greater silence of God in your life, that does not mean that you have forgotten, that you will not fulfill what was promised or that you are not important to him. On the contrary, He deals with your life, with your needs and, above all, works to organize how your dreams and longings of the heart will be fulfilled.
Men like Abraham, David, Elijah among many others went through those moments of silence where they experienced mixed feelings, despair, persecution and so many things that apparently made them believe that the purposes of God in their lives would not be fulfilled, but seeing the end of each one can see how an Abraham considered friend of God and father of faith made history, a David considered by God himself according to his heart, an Elijah who did not experience physical death but was taken by God, after realizing the results At the end of each of these men, I can not help but keep quietly waiting for the story to write to God with me.
And you must be sure of something, God will write a new story with you, because if you are going through one of those moments of silence of God, it is because there is something else for you, it is because you are not of the pile and because you have been chosen for something big and for that you have to send it to the school called: Silence, where God will work with you, to leave you ready to write that precious story through you.
So lift up your spirits, do not faint, do not give up so easily, believe, trust, stand firm, because something great comes for you, you have been called to make history to be a man or a fearsome woman for Satan and all his hosts of evil, this period in your life is necessary, because God is working on you, and you can be sure that the final work will be fabulous, accurate for the task entrusted to you.
Silence is beautiful when we understand that after something great comes. After the silence of Jesus, came the redemption of humanity.
