Based in part on 2 Samuel 7:18-19:
Hearing That Still Small Voice by Michael Doyle First and foremost in questions of worship Is the supreme importance of your relationship To God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit It is to valued most as though you fear it By fear, of course, I mean shown the utmost respect Never to be treated carelessly or with any neglect Meditating on the things of the Lord gives us all In this particular is the decision as to obeying His call As back to when David supplicated himself fully broken We too are to listen and spend time on God's words spoken It is in spending this time that we offer our devotion The solace and source of the eternal peace instead of commotion In this day and time, finding this quiet time is not easy And still the scriptures say this is the ways pleasing to He Who loves us unconditionally and in yielding be forgiven And in being forgiven coming to the place of truly living Our life is about, as always, setting and distinguishing priority It is as simple as that without our excuses of complexity Just the worshipper and God spending time with a clean heart And a willingness to listen to what He needs to say from the start Daily time must be set aside for the practice of holy communion In which there is a transforming quietude of God and man's reunion Determining as we will the course of our daily happenstance We set out the intentional course beyond our hurried circumstance Finding these times to talk and spend time beyond striving Will find each of us making the space without contriving This time spent in mutual and easy moments of true seclusion Will allow God to speak to the heart moving us beyond our illusion (c) June 22, 2020 Michael Doyle All Rights Reserved
