In the silence of the trees – v3

In the silence of the trees, standing,
in their stillness, looking skyward,
listening in my watching, seeking,
yearning for conversation, in prayer,
Speaking, quiet, open to God…
 
Yet, I still find myself in disquiet,
needing to walk even more slowly,
to listen even more deeply
to the stillness of these moments
Raising my spirit, skyward…
 
In the silence of the trees, standing,
I sense the vastness, the majesty,
of Your beauty, of Your creation;
I long to be your Servant,
Speak to me now, Lord, God…

Psalm 30:5
For God’s anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime;
weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.
Psalm 30
