Jesus said to the Jews and to the chief priests, "He who is of God hears the words of God; if you do not hear them, it is because you are not of God."
The fact that a mother is attuned to the cries of her child. No matter where she is or whatever be the surrounding noise, her baby's cry gets her attention. Young children blindfolded can recognize their mother by a mere touch! When in sync with another person, words are not necessary, mere presence counts and speaks much!
By that logic, not hearing God's words can rightly mean only one thing: I am not in sync with God! While it is easy to shift the blame and say, it is God who is silent, owning up our lack of zeal to stay in touch with God is more mature.
