The discipline of waiting on God, once deeply valued, has been lost to the distractions of social media and constant stimulation, making true solitude rare. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar recognize that silence forces us to confront our hearts; yet, believers often use digital distractions to escape rather than seek revival, healing, and conviction. Knowing God goes beyond scripture—it requires abiding in Him through intentional stillness. Jesus emphasized the importance of stepping away to rest in God’s presence, teaching that spiritual strength comes from solitude. Unlike secular mindfulness, Christian solitude is not about emptying the mind but filling it with God’s thoughts. Practical ways to cultivate this include setting screen-free times, taking walks without a phone, and prioritizing time with God over entertainment. Though difficult, the effort leads to a deep and abiding relationship with the Lord, free from the noise that seeks to pull us away.
