Sweet Whispers

Those whispers without words
the sweetest ever heard;
we bow our head to pray,
but have no words to say.
Our little house of lies
to Him we can’t disguise;
but to our glad surprise,
there is love in His eyes.

He’ll allow our demise,
but he’d rather we rise
and take a look around
as His Spirit surrounds.
You’ll recognize His face
when you’ve finished your race;
for now it is His voice.
In that, you have a choice.

"I may ask you to sit silent before Me, and I may speak no word that you could write.  All the same that waiting with Me will bring comfort and Peace.  Only friends who understand and love each other can wait silent in each other's presence.  And it may be that I shall prove our friendship by asking you to wait in silence while I rest with you, assured of your Love and understanding.  So wait, so love, so joy."  from "God Calling" by Two Listeners, Edited by A.J. Russell, 1989.

"Rest (be silent to the Lord) in the Lord, and wait patiently for him..."  Psalm 37:7a
