There is always a reason for God’s silence – a purpose under heaven.
He may be silent because He has spoken and we have not responded – so He waits. Or He may have spoken and we have said “no” – so He gives us time to see the consequences of our disobedience. Or He may want to speak, but we are too busy that we are not giving Him the silence needed to hear His “still small voice” in the recesses of our hearts. Or God may be silent because it is His time to be silent.
In any intimate relationship there are always periods of silence. God’s silence may be a test of our faith.
“If we are faithless, he will remain faithful…” 2 Tim. 2: 13
