“You shall keep the Sabbath, because it is holy for you. Everyone who profanes it shall be put to death. Whoever does any work on it, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. Six days shall work be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death. Therefore the people of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, observing the Sabbath throughout their generations, as a covenant forever. It is a sign forever between me and the people of Israel that in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and son the seventh day he rested and was refreshed” (Exodus 31:14-17, ESV).

I’m tempted to say it’s the most ignored commandment in the entire Bible. Between rushing here and there, maintaining rigid schedules, and filling our ears with commotion from the media, it’s no wonder we feel so exhausted. If everyone feels “tired,” why aren’t we engaging in habits that will practically resolve the issue?

I’m talking about cultivating silence in a noisy world, and here are three reasons I believe we currently aren’t but should strive for this healthier habit.
