I’m told you speak to me, but I don’t hear it. 

I feel as though I am talking to a brick wall and all I get in return is violent silence. 

 

 

Perhaps it’s me. Perhaps it’s you. 

Either way I’m left wondering where are you? 

 

Where are you my God? Why can’t I hear you? And why do you seem so distant? 

 

And in a instant, 

he spoke. 

 

Honey I am right here. 

Stop putting me at arms length when you get frustrated, 

stop building up walls when you get scared, 

stop shutting me out when you think I ashamed

and please stop running when you think I don’t hear.

 

I hear it all and I speak.

 

 I know you hear my voice.

 Just simply sit and listen. 

No need to make it complicated just tune out the outside noise. 

 

It delights me to talk to you and tell you truth 

I want you to know your value and how much I love you. 

 

So next time you get those words in your mind and tug in your heart, 

Just open your ears and some pretty amazing things will begin to start.
