Silence

Those people who know me well know that I usually have something to say about most things. But there are times when I am before God that I just have to shut up.
There are times when I am too tired, too ashamed and too awestruck for words

I sit in the silence of weariness
Watching for your touch to comfort me
Listening to your Spirit praying for me

I kneel in the silence of shame
Watching you crush the excuses in me
Listening to your Spirit challenging me

I stand in the silence of wonder
Watching for you Spirit to work in me
Listening to you Spirit speaking to me


God Bless
