There is a tangible sound when Christ arrives on the scene. Its often not “sound” as we know it but in the Spirit you know it when it comes. It’s merely Him getting your attention.
He says often in His word… “You have ears but do not hear..”
His coming can be swift like the wind yet soft as a breeze…. whether inside or outside He will call you to an assignment … either simply to come away with Him for a while or go help one in need. He has often captured my eye gaze to a need in the grocery store or a restaurant. All are critical times of hearing …often I have not been ready in season and out of season. I wonder how much of His sweetness we miss daily due to all the noise…may He help us to hear…
“Help Me to Hear”
At times it’s not a “sound”
But a burning inside
When His dear Spirit
Does witness a cry
When He does then send you
On assignment to mend
You now His arrow
Flown by His wind.
Or a subtle eye catching
An echo surreal
An odd bird that’s chirping
The wind suddenly stilled
A message sent quickly
From one whose been gone
Help me to hear Lord
Your creations love song.
It’s a frantic sweet lady
Searching her purse
Holding back tears
And a bag of her stuff.
A downtrodden widow
Lonely from loss
These are the sounds
That come from the cross.
A beckoning “come higher..”
To see what He sees
To Hear what He hears
And weep when He weeps
To take now the courage
To wield authority
These are the sounds
That rise from His seat.
Oh, help me to hear Lord
The unspoken hurts
The wrestling of hearts
Who long to give up
The silent cry whispers
Alone in the night
Caught in the traps
Of greedy men’s sights.
And help me to hear Lord
Your song as it’s sung
Your words as you write
Your heavenly tongue
Your kind, gentle sighing
When I’m in despair
And the sound you give sweetly
As you brush back my hair.
Do help me to hear Lord
The rustling of leaves
Remembering your word
Speaks much of these
And cause me to stare
At the sound of your gaze
Calling me nigh
To rest a few days.
And if I do miss Thee
Please do turnaround
Drowned out the noise
And silence the crowds
Do what you must
To get me to you
And help me to hear
ALL you want me to.
