WHY GOD IS SILENT

I heard God’s voice so clear at first
His Word spoke deeply to my heart
I knew just what to do right then
It was His presence from the start.

Then other voices soon were heard
That made me turn my mind to see
If this was now the only choice
That God intended just for me.

So when my thoughts led me astray
Confusion followed me around
The voice that once was loud and clear
Became a hallow, empty sound.

As I was wandering in the night
My troubled soul was griped by fear
Until confession brought me back
To where His leading became clear.

Now when I hear the Shepherd’s voice
I follow closely by His side
Assured that when He speaks again
I know He'll be my faithful Guide.

--B. Pent.

Thank you for sharing... It's beautiful!
Your poetry is amazing, Papa. Believe me... I've tried to write poetry before but have failed bitterly!
