No other words than God’s will do.  Our hearts are silent.  Our soul is longing.  Speak to me, Lord.

As I stand at the precipice of entering into the holidays, a mood of expectancy pervades the atmosphere.

I know the usual suspects of the season will call for my attention.  Like gusts of winter chill, a variety of voices will attempt to work it’s way into my calendar.

Before I know it, my hours may soon be filled with things to do, places to gather, and friends to hug.

Yet, like the last leaves of the season hesitantly clinging to the trees, I want to slow down the remaining days of the year.

I want the love of that first Christmas to permeate all I do, say and think in the time I left.

Not the stress, the drama or the logistics of storybook cheer.

I want to break out of the pretense, quiet myself inside, so that I might find joy flowing from within.

I am needy.  I am weary.

I am in need of God’s love.

A Prayer Song

As we step into a new month this week, the song I’ve chosen for today’s Worship Smoothie has been a gift this week:   American Worship Leader Tommy Walker’s “Speak To Me”.

It is an alluring prayer song that has rested in my soul, making it’s way to create room for God and His language of love.

When we seek God, only His words will do.  Not just any words.

Speak to me.

Only the private words He has just for each of us will satisfy our desires for love.

Let the lyrics become a guiding prayer, as you enter into a first weekend of November.

As you listen, may the jazz brush beat mirror the Spirit’s pulse on your heart.

I am your servant
And I am listening
Speak to me Lord

I need your wisdom
And truth and comfort
Speak to me Lord, speak to me

Through your word
Through your spirit
Speak your words of life

Happy Friday, fellow faith travelers.

I hope you enjoy this beautiful song.

May it open our hearts, widening it to His words, His nearness, His gifts, His help, and His touch.

Lyrics to Speak To Me - By Tommy Walker
I am your servant
And I am listening
Speak to me Lord, speak to me
I need your wisdom
And truth and comfort
Speak to me Lord, speak to me
Speak to me
Speak to me
Through your word
Through your spirit
Speak your words of life
Speak to me
Speak to me
I am listening
I am waiting
Speak to me
I am your servant
And I am listening
Speak to me Lord, speak to me
My heart is silent
My soul is longing
Speak to me Lord, speak to me
