The God of silence beckons me
To journey to my heart
Where He awaits
O Lord, I hear You calling tenderly
To You I come to gaze
At the beauty of Your face I cannot see

To rest in Your embrace I cannot feel
To dwell in Your love hurting but sweet
To be with You; to glimpse eternity

God of night, fount of all my delight.
Show Your light . . . that my heart, like Yours, burn bright.

Be still the torment of the night
Will not encumber you, if you believe
My child this darkness isn’t emptiness
For here I mold your heart
Unto My image painfully you long to see

The self you yearn to be, but fear to know
The world from which you flee in Me find home
All these I give you, if you remain in Me

COUNTERPOINT:
I am ever here
My child, you need not fear
The dark will set you free
And bring your heart to Me

CODA:
The God of silence beckons me
To journey to my heart
Where He awaits me.

My Thoughts:  In our lives, there are times when there are things we cannot understand.  Moments when we feel that we are surrounded by darkness.  During these moments, we feel fear, hatred, doubts, sadness, loneliness, hopelessness and a lot of other negative feelings towards God and other people.  During our times of failures and defeat, we ask God why it has to happen.  Then answer is easy…. but is sometimes hard to accept.   During these times, God wants us to feel His love for us.

The  trials and storms are not there to torment us, torture us or cause us pain.  Trials are there so God can mold us into His image.   To bring us back to Him after we have gone astray.  Even if we are in pain right now, He will stay by our side until we get through this storm.  He is just there guiding us until we find our way back to His kingdom… our home.  And as long as we believe in Him, as long as we let Him do His will, we can face each storm and trials with a smile on our face and with the hope that in the end….. we will be home.

During our times of trials, He is just there, waiting inside our hearts, waiting patiently for us to hear Him and let Him ease our pain.
