<p>What if silence isn’t a punishment—but an invitation?</p><p>In Luke 1, Zechariah’s long season of silence finally gives way to song. But before his voice returns, something deeper happens: God is already at work, forming hope, preparing redemption, and teaching him to see the present differently.</p><p>Rev. Joshua Jalandoon's sermon invites us to reframe silence—not as God’s absence or disapproval, but as an aid that helps us pay attention to what God is doing <em>now</em>. In a world that rushes to fill every quiet moment, we explore how love breaks the silence not by erasing it, but by revealing its purpose.</p><p>A reflection for anyone waiting, listening, or learning to trust that God is still speaking—even when words fall away.</p><p><br></p>
