In His Presence

Lord I just want to sit here in your presence and think of you.
I really don’t know what to say, lest I praise you more, again.
I am listening for your voice; even one affirming word to speak.
How still your voice has been; your Spirit speaks softly within me.
Hush noise in my soul; lest you drown the whispers of love and peace.
Lord I can’t hear you well; speak a little louder for my sake.
Speak often too, until I know your voice; its tone and rhythm.
Hush my soul; be still my mind;
Be quiet my thoughts; hide my reflections!
‘Till I hear clearly the words of my Lord, and feel His breath on my ear.
Now the silence; how golden; how lovely it is, just to be here with you.
How tangible is your presence; your warmth and glow I feel.
The longing for your embrace beats heavily in sync with my heart as I breathe.
Love so overwhelming crushes fears; anxiety’s leer broken like a spider’s silk, and disappears;
While I wait, with patience, your precious word, the silence to break.
But alas! I can not hold it!
The brilliance of your mercy, kindness and love floods my inner being with such joy; words unspeakable.
Feeble my attempts to express; in tones that ripple and flow from deep within,
Rivers of praises, adoration and gratitude unending.
I heard you loud and clear Lord; that affirming word; LOVE.
The Lord knows your heart. He is well pleased, I am sure.
With Him, we can do anything. Without Him we drift without direction.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ! Amen
Well sorted words unto God, may He glorify Himself in all His creations!
