A Poem: In Silence
In silence… I celebrate the stillness That dwells deep within my soul; And listen for Your whisper. In silence… I descend into the depths, Peeling off the layers of life; And wait for Your voice. In silence… Speak to my heart. In silence… Show me Your face. In silence… Shout Your love.
A Prayer: Let Me Listen to You Alone
Lord, quiet my soul, Block out every distraction. Let me listen to you alone. Let me know your mind, That I might think like you. Let me hear your voice, That I might speak as you. Let me have your eyes and ears, To see and hear hurt like you. Most of all, Let me hear your heart, That I might love like you.
A Passage: For Reflection
My soul, wait silently for God alone,
For my expectation is from Him.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my defense; I shall not be moved.
In God is my salvation and my glory;
The rock of my strength,
And my refuge, is in God.
-- Psalm 62:5-7 NKJV
