A Little Contemplative...

I've been listening to my new friend, Sara Groves, a Christian artist I recently discovered. I think her music fits well in my life right now with things I'm thinking, feeling, and learning. One of her songs that's where I'm at in this moment is Hello Lord. If you find yourself at the center of making a decision, you might be able to identify with this song. I wish I had a video to share because often the melody helps convey the message, but I couldn't find one. The words will have to do...


Hello Lord, it's me your child. I have a few things on my mind. Right now I'm faced with big decisions, and I'm wondering if you have a minute.

Right now I don't hear so well and I was wondering if you could speak up. I know you tore the veil so I could sit with you in person and hear what you're saying, but right now, I just can't hear you.

I don't doubt your sovereignty, I doubt my own ability to hear what you're saying and to do the right thing,and I desperately want to do the right thing.

Right now I don't hear so well and I was wondering if you could speak up. I know you tore the veil so I could sit with you in person and hear what you're saying,but right now, I just can't hear you.

Somewhere in the back of my mind I think you are telling me to wait, and though patience has never been mine, Lord I will wait to hear from you.
