Word of God Speak

I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay
The last thing I need is to be heard
But to hear what You would say

[CHORUS]
Word of God speak
Would You pour down like rain
Washing my eyes to see
Your majesty
To be still and know
That You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest
In Your holiness
Word of God speak

I'm finding myself in the midst of You
Beyond the music, beyond the noise
All that I need is to be with You
And in the quiet hear Your voice

[REPEAT CHORUS 2x]

I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay

These words washed over me as I drove to the meeting. I switched to another radio station because I did not particularly want to hear the word of align with to God at that moment. I wanted the word to align with my purposes and I was afraid if I heard the word, then my plans would have to change.

I went to the meeting and asked a godly ouple what was best. They told me exacttly what I didn't want to hear, but for some reason, it did not seem so hard anyrmore. I drove home with mixed feelings. I knew what I had to do, and although it did not sound pleasant, it felt inherently right.

I continued to drive, and some rain spattered the windshield. I felt an overwhelming silence, even my thoughts were stilled. (If you know how much I talk, you will realize that is a miracle in and of itself!) I heard God say Drive slow. Now, granted, it was raining and very windy, but usually God doesn't sit with me in my truck and give me driving tips. Therefore, I decided to take it seriously. I took a turn out of a neighborhood onto the main street when I saw a huge branch fall off a tree in the lane a few feet in front of me. I braked hard and swerved, missing the branch my less than a foot. If I had beeen going any faster, I shutter to think what might have happened.

Driving home, I was at a loss for words. But the funny thing is, it was ok.
