YES LORD?

"Do not worry about

your ability to hear God,

trust in God's ability

to speak to you."











Prayer is two-way conversation, after all.

And if I think Him too small to talk to me...

and His ability to make Himself heard too weak,

than I am of all men most miserable.


I've had enough one-way conversations in my

lifetime. This is one place, one conversation,

where I cannot settle for tid bits.

If I need take an hour to quiet my soul,

then that is what I must do.

God help me not settle for crumbs.

For it is not You Who is not able to speak,

but I who will not settle down

and be spoken to.


















"Samuel... Samuel..."

"Yes, Lord, here I am..."

-1 Samuel 3:10

INNER FACE

















by Jocelyne Sade


Come to the place
Where there's no trace
Of the harried pace,
the pointless race,
the hardened face.

Come into His ways,

Where there's abundant Grace,
In the Light of His Face...


Where God is Always.
Always, Always,
Good.
