Quiet Ruled The Night

Leave a reply 
Sometime in the night
I heard Him call my name
Quietly whispering His sweet words to me
I waited for His words
Yearning for His voice
Hoping He would tell me what would be

But quiet ruled the night
He did not speak again
I tried to recall what my Lord had said
His whisper was so faint
And I was half awake
I wasn’t sure what words were in my head

I took up pen and paper
And started to write down
Hoping it would spark my memory
But once I got the story down
Of how He woke me up
There was no more to write that I could see

I realized I’d missed it
I waited much to long
To write the words my Lord had said too me
I pondered getting up
To write what He had said
And once I took the pen the words did flee

A sadness filled my heart
As I lay back down to sleep
I knew that I had missed His word this time
I promise Him the next time
He starts to speak to me
I’ll quickly rise and write down every line.

If you’re awakened in the night
By the still small voice of God
Make sure you have a pen and paper near
You never know what He may say
Or what words will speak to you
Just open up your heart and lend an ear

Words From My Savior

Leave a reply 
I open my eyes 
And what do I see
My Blessed Savior 
Looking at me

A smile on His face
His eyes open wide
He takes hold of my hand
And sits down at my side

“Hello Son” He says slowly
“I've so much to say
I want to guide you 
Through all of your days.

I want to tell you
Of my wondrous plans
Drawn up I'm heaven
They'll help you to stand

You see, trials will come
And sorrows you'll know
These things are a part
Of what makes you grow

There’ll even be times
You'll be sick or in pain
But what I allow
Is there for your gain

The problem that comes
And you don’t understand
Is that you think these things
Are not in my plan.

I implore you, my son
When you take time to.pray
That you also take time
To listen each day

So often you fill
Your prayers up with words
That you can't hear me speaking
My soft, gentle words

In my words are your comfort 
Your peace and your joy 
So.please don't miss out
Take time to enjoy

Then He got up and left
And the lesson was taken
When I.pray words don't matter
It's the listening that makes it

Effective Prayer

You’re Welcome

Leave a reply 
There are so many times
I say Thank You Lord
For the wonderful things you have done
But oft I'm so busy
Giving Him thanks
That I don't listen to His response

I think, if I’d listen
To hear His soft voice
The words He would say would be clear
He would once again
Tell me of His great love
As He whispers these words in my ear

Your welcome to my peace
More peace then you’ve ever known
I’ll shower it on you each day
So you’ll never feel alone

Your welcome to my joy
That bubbles up from deep within
Though trials may come in your life
My joy will help you to win

Your welcome to my healing
For sickness and heartache and pain
You no longer have to suffer
My healing will touch you again

Your welcome to my mercy
I extend it to you each day
I paid the punishment for your sin
So you can be free from your shame

Your welcome to my grace 
I desire to bless you so much
By faith take the gifts that I give you
Allow me your life to touch

I feel He would go on and on
Welcoming me to His love
The list of His blessings is endless
He showers them down from above

So the next time I thank Him, I’ll listen
To see if these words He will say
And then I will take time to praise Him
Day after day after day

During work or during play

Be Still

Leave a reply 
I’m not sure how much more trouble I can take
I feel that I’m alone about to break
My time is quite filled up
His life is not enough
My wandering mind keeps getting in my way

I cry out to God, “Oh, Lord what can I do?
It seems that I am floundering without you”
Then I hear your voice reply
“Child, look up to the sky.
I am always here and want to talk to you.

Be still and know my peace
Be still and know my joy
Be still and hear my voice
I will speak to you through the noise
Be still and find new hope
Be still and feel my love
Be still and I will guide you
Until you reach your home above

I hear His sweet words and myself
How can I find a place where I can be still
Then I start to realize
That such a place is disguised
Because anywhere He can meet with me

I sit down on the deck in silence
I do all I can be quiet
As the minutes pass by
My thoughts all but die
Until only His voice I hear

Be still and know my peace
Be still and know my joy
Be still and hear my voice
I will speak to you through the noise
Be still and find new hope
Be still and feel my love
Be still and I will guide you
Until you reach your home above
