silence

She doesn’t know just yet
Where she is headed tomorrow
She constantly questions her God
b/c she is wanting answers…

and patient He listens in waiting
to the cries of her life
and says child you aren’t yet ready
b/c I’ve got something better in mind..

and still she waits
wanting an answer
waiting to make a choice
and a world apart
he sits in peace
with the silence as his voice

her life isn’t going so well
she’s overwhelmed and tired and worn
her ears are getting harder
b/c she doesn’t think he hears

but he hasn’t left her side
while he prepared her heart
for the life she has coming
for what what he’s about to start…

and still she waits
wanting some answer
waiting to make a choice
and a world apart
he sits in peace
the silence as his voice

and then when she least expects it
he opens up his hands
and out it falls
into her life
his perfect plan…

she hears it loud now
she has her answer
she was patient to make a choice
a world apart
he sat in peace
with silence as his voice
