Silence and Rhythm



"The Lord is good to all; He has compassion on all He has made." Psalm 145:9

...They say actions speak louder than words
You say so much and say nothing at all
In stillness you teach me to know that you are God
Sometimes I learn the most when no words are spoken
In silence you speak beautiful words of truth
Your leaves applaud you and fall to the ground in surrender to your wind
Creation sways to the rhythm your Spirit leads
The waters shift and grass trembles at the rush of your breath
Birds glide on the path your wind creates
Flowers dance for you
They proclaim Your Name
They're crying out to you
They declare their Makers rule over the Earth

Teach my spirit to sway, stay, still and move to Your rhythm.
