Do you ever feel like you are seeking God but all you find is silence? I've been feeling a lot like this lately. A song by Joy Williams really spoke to me though so I thought I would share with you all. Here is the song.
Silence
Joy Williams
Are You listening
To anything that I say
‘Cause I been praying
How many prayers can I pray
I’m still waiting
Maybe You’ll show up today
I know You’re here, but I can’t feel You
And if You’re speaking, I can’t hear You
How much longer will this last
So okay
Answer me with silence
It’s okay if You don’t say a word
You’re testing me to trust You’ll be faithful in this quiet
So okay
Answer me
With silence
Why do I question
Your intentions for me
When Your affection
Is a proven legacy
Oh Father, Father
Turn my fears into peace
I know Your love will never leave
I know You want what’s best for me
You’re testing me to trust You’ll be faithful in this quiet
Oh, it’s okay
If You answer me with silence
And it’s okay if You don’t say a word
You’re testing me to trust You’ll be faithful in this quiet
So okay
Answer me
With silence
Yeah. Please pray that I just trust Him during this time of silence and that I understand that He does want what is best for me. Thanks. Take care everyone. God bless.
