Can't Hear God?

"When you cannot hear God, you will find that He has trusted you in the most intimate way possible... with absolute silence" (My Utmost)
Kind of an interesting perspective. And isn't is always the way - if we just change our view, get it in line with truth...
So the assertion here is that when God is silent, it's not a bad thing. He is actually trusting you to trust him, as if you have enough faith to do it. As if you believe that God's timing is perfect, and that he is moving on your behalf, even though you can't see, hear, or feel it.
