Human beings hold a unique place in the heart of God, as evidenced by His continuous care and the unfolding of His salvific plan throughout history. This paper investigates the profound relationship between silence and divine encounter, focusing on the biblical narrative of Job and the reflections of Cardinal Robert Sarah in The Power of Silence. The key question addressed is: How does silence create a space for divine interaction, particularly in times of suffering? The study begins with an exploration of Job’s experience, particularly when God finally speaks to him after a prolonged period of silence (Job 38:1-2). This encounter is contrasted with Cardinal Sarah’s insights into the essential role of silence in connecting with God in a noisy world. Both texts view silence as integral to spiritual growth and understanding. In Job’s case, silence is a backup for grappling with the mysteries of suffering and divine wisdom. For Cardinal Sarah, silence is an active tool for deepening one’s spiritual life and experiencing God profoundly. By employing a theological-literary approach, this paper delves into both the narrative of Job and the spiritual wisdom of Cardinal Sarah, revealing that silence is more than just the absence of noise it is a sacred space for spiritual growth and understanding. The relevance of this study lies in its suggestion that in our fast-paced, distracted lives, reclaiming silence is crucial for deepening our relationship with God.
