Shhh…Be Still

So often I put words into Your mouth.

I hear what I want to hear.

I see what I want to see.

I formulate this idea of who You are,

Without ever consulting You.

I have made our so-called relationship into…

Into hedonism on a stick.

A semi-moralistic-wannabee “religion”.

I have so quietly ignored the whispers

The still small voice that keeps saying,

“Be still and know that I am God….” (Psalm 46:10)

The noise just so often overtakes me.

and all I care about is my opinion and what I see

or what I want to see.

“… I will be exalted among the nations

I will be exalted among the earth.” (Psalm 46:10)

Like we sang tonight…

“Open the eyes of my heart Lord…

I want to see you…

To see You high and lifted up.”

That is my prayer!

For all of us!

“In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”(John16:33)
