Antwort What is the meaning of silent prayer? Weitere Antworten – What is silence prayer
Silence and solitude are essential aspects of contemplative prayer, a practice of prayer that waits on God and trusts in God's present love and grace. While silence can be especially helpful in becoming attentive to God while praying, it is hardly an excuse to remain aloof from the needs of our neighbors.Examples of the sacred word would be: “Amen”, “Lord”, “Jesus”, “Abba” or “Yahweh”. A simple inward sacred gaze upon God may be more suitable for some people than the sacred word. Gently gaze inwardly, without hurrying or, if you prefer, introduce your sacred word gently.Do not try too much silence at first. If you're new to it, one or two minutes of silence may seem like a long time. Over time, you can gradually increase the length of the silence until it reaches 10 or 20 minutes. Set a goal that is doable.

What did Jesus say about praying in silence

We should not fault Eli for not recognizing what Hannah was doing, praying with her lips moving, but reciting silent prayers in her heart. Hannah is a religious innovator here. Her lips moved, as the silent prayer is an intermediary step between voiced prayers and the eventual practice of silent, inward prayers.
