Saturday 10/9/10 - "GENTLE, QUIET SILENCE" - Six Word Saturday in 110



SIX WORD SATURDAY IN 110




"GENTLE, QUIET SILENCE"


Seeking holiness of supernatural moments
Go softly, simply within the spirit's depth
And find those precious gifts in gentle, quiet silence


And there it's like the silent whisper smooth

Of snow gliding silently down from sky to
Land noiselessly on the hushed ground below

And there it's like the autumn leaves letting go

Their grasp on branches high above
Swirling lazily earthward to settle with the rest


And there it's like the dandelion puff

Floating freely, aimlessly through the air

Swaying one way and the next to its home


And there below at rest, at peace

There in that perfect place, a void

All that's heard is God's sweet voice

I hope that I get to hear the voice someday. But I believe that He talks to me through many things and many people.

I like the poem. We meet the Lord through public worship and through fellowship and through the Bible and through preaching and through prayer, but also through silence. Thanks for the eloquent reminder.
