I hear the SILENCE of the morning
and the ringing in my ears.
I want GOD to do what I love what HE does
when HE does it,
but there is only SILENCE.
But is the SILENCE what HE wants me to hear?
It is the BE STILL moment of total SILENCE.
There is no "feeling" that HE is here,
yet I know HE is.
The SILENCE can be deafening
especially
when you purposely meet with GOD
and HE has nothing to say,
yet you know HE has so much to say.
THE SILENCE OF FAITH
is always a test for me
because I am not a STILL person.
Right now I feel like I am a child again
playing the SILENT game.
Hmm, but was it really a game.
You may have played it too.
My mom would challenge my siblings and I
to see who could remain silent the longest.
Hmm.
Now that really wasn't a game,
as it was a forced time of SILENCE and the nice way of saying
BE QUIET.
Well GOD wants me to be quiet right now
and I don't like it.
I am trying to force HIM to say something profound to me
because I crave more of HIM.
I always crave more of HIM,
because when you have experienced GOD
then you want more
and more
and more
of HIM
because HE is so much more
that we could ever fathom.
Do you hear my wrestling with HIM right now?
This isn't a GOD problem as it is my problem.
As I want GOD to perform for me.
Wow.
HE has spoken.
HE has broken through the SILENCE.
Who am I to tell GOD what to do what I want HIM to do
in the way that I want HIM to do it.
I hear the words that GOD spoke back to Job~
“Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?" (Job 38:4)
Basically, who am I to question GOD who created everything
including myself.
Yikes.
HE spoke.
I will embrace
THE SILENCE OF FAITH~
Being STILL right where I am
knowing I am with the ONE who wants to be with me.
Embrace
THE SILENCE OF FAITH
because
"HE IS WITH YOU" (listen to the song below)
