The Voice in the Silence
June 7, 2011

I come seeking His presence;
Words flow like a torrent from within.
Amidst the chaos of my tumultuous heart,
His voice beckons, “Peace, be still.”
This voice that calmed the sea
Assures my heart that He is God.
In the silence that follows, He enters.
The secret place within becomes His home.
He tells me who I am: Chosen, Holy, Dearly Loved.
Suddenly, I realize, He has quieted me with His love.
Where I once knew only shame, He has made me holy.
Rather than reject me, He says I am chosen.
For every time I’ve questioned, He calls me dearly loved.
My God calls me chosen, and says I am precious.
How many times have I felt inadequate,
When my union with Him makes me complete.
In the time of my stillness, it’s then He meets me,
Bringing His love deeper within.
