BE STILL

OK Lord. I've quieted my heart, I've quieted my soul.

I've laid everything down that has taken its toll.

I give You my time to be still before You.

Please open my ears to hear something new.

I wait before You at this crossroads in life

A season has closed, I let go of my strife.

Be still oh my soul and wait before Him.

His small voice will surface as noise grows dim.

Surrounded in peace as I lay upon my bed

All cares are gone as I seek Him instead.

Come oh Dove, the One Whom I seek.

Whisper Your heart, please come and speak.

Your people are troubled in masses of care.

They need extra help to know You are there.

They want a Word for the season to come.

They desire assurance from Your kingdom.

I call upon You, my heavenly Source

It's not about them, it's about You, of course

So what do You have to say, this new day?

As I lay here before You, lingering to stay.

Your peace surrounds me as we become one.

I am received as You say well done.

Please let Your Words flow to my ears

As we commune together throughout our years.

Ps 4:3-4 NKJV

But know that the LORD has set apart for Himself him who is godly; The LORD will hear when I call to Him. Be angry, and do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still.

1 Kings 19:11-13 NKJV

Then He said, "Go out, and stand on the mountain before the LORD."  And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains  and broke the rocks in pieces before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind;  and after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake;  and after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire;  and after the fire a still small voice. So it was, when Elijah heard it,  that he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave.  Suddenly a voice came to him, and said, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"
