The Secret Garden Chronicles Word of God Speak

This has been a busy week, and there has been no time to spend here in the Secret Garden until today.

As soon as I said to my hubby that I was headed out to the Secret Garden to sit a while, the song "Word of God Speak" popped into my mind...and I found myself singing it as I sat down in the garden...as a prayer...so perfect for this moment.  Here is the link for this song and a copy of the lyrics for you to sing along with me:

Word of God Speak, By Mercy Me

Lyrics

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

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

(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 at a loss for words

And the funny thing is it's okay

Here are some of the "words" that God spoke to me in the stillness of this place today:

Psalm 119:89-90

"Forever, O Lord,

Your Word is settled in heaven.

Your faithfulness endures to all generations.

You established the earth, and it abides"

Psalm 119:105

"Your word is lamp to my feet,

and a light to my path."

Psalm 119:114

"You are my hiding place and my shield;

I hope in Your word."

Psalm 119:130

"The entrance of Your words gives light;

It gives understanding to the simple."

Psalm 119:160

"The entirety of Your word is truth;

And every one of Your righteous judgments

endures forever."

Psalm 119:169

"Let my cry come before You, O Lord;

Give me understanding 

according to Your word."

Psalm 119:170-171

"Let my supplication come before You;

Deliver me according to Your word.

My lips shall utter praise 

for You teach me Your statutes."

Psalm 130:5-6

"I wait for the Lord, 

my soul waits;

and in His word I do hope.

My soul waits for the Lord

more than those who watch for the morning...

Yes, more than those who watch for the morning."

Psalm 103:17-18

"But the mercy of the Lord 

is from everlasting to everlasting

on those who fear Him;

and His righteousness to children's children.

To such as keep His covenant, 

and to those who remember His

commandments to do them."

Thank You, Lord, for speaking to me today in this place.

You know the concerns of my heart...and You have 

addressed them according to Your Word.

In You I place my trust...for myself,

and for my "children's children",

and for ALL generations.

Amen.

Perhaps this was a quiet moment for the "Word of God" to speak to your heart today as well.  I pray so.  Have a blessed and glorious day my friends.
