Getting Quiet

Maggi Dawn has a great post on listening. It speaks of that age-old problem and one that Jen and I are very much faced with right now. How do you get quiet and listen for what God wants to say? People who ask this question are asking it because they're finding it difficult to do and we certainly are right now. I find that I try to get quiet and other things creep in to my mind or I fall asleep or the phone rings...

I feel like it's what I need the most--just to listen and yet I find it impossible. A good friend of mine would probably tell me in this situation: "Don't strive, just wait on the Lord." I wish I could.

Any suggestions on how to get quiet would be greatly welcome.
