THE SHOUT AND THE WHISPER OF GOD...

THE SHOUT AND  THE WHISPER OF GOD..

Have you ever heard..
the sweet whisper of God?
It is  most likely a sweet..
quiet verbal prod ..

You stop and pause..
 if not but a moment .. 
Wonder what you heard..
 was  His voice or
your written sonnet .. 

You ask yourself.. 
Could this be You? 
I am sure it's  You ..
So clear and true ..

When I am done ..
 with a written verse..
I see His wisdom..
 as I read and search..

I hear Him speak ..
as I read His Word .. 
 I hear Him speak..
as I seek and purge..

Have you ever heard..
the sweet whisper of God?
There is nothing like it..
 on this earthly sod ..

When I was young..
 I prayed a prayer..
It was not His will..
He made this clear ..

I heard my name ..
Shouted loud and clear..
There was no mistake.. 
I jumped in fear ..

I knew in an instant..
 It was God Himself.. 
The voice was His..
 There was no one else..

I suddenly realized..
 My prayer was wrong..
 He was less than pleased..
I felt it strong ..

So never say.. 
God never speaks out loud..
I've  heard Him clear...
Like a noisy crowd ..

He whispers sweet..
He whispers still..
He whispers faint..
He whispers clear..

I've heard Him shout.. 
So loud and clear.. And
His still small voice..
Yet I have no fear..

May I never stop hearing 
Him speak to me..  
It  is in His voice ..
That I am set free ..

Matt 17:5
I Kings 19: 12
