When will the silence end?

 

                I have been in a season where God has been really silent. At first it wasn’t a problem. Sure it was a little bit annoying, but no big deal… but that was a few months ago. Now I’ve had enough of the silence. Do you know how hard it is to talk to someone who doesn’t respond?!

                There have been a few times where the Lord has spoken… but they tend to be things for other people. So although I know that the Lord can and will still speak, I guess I am kind of being selfish and I want Him to speak to me. I want to know more about Him, to know more about me, to know what He wants… and yet there is silence.

                I’ve done the check, have I done something I shouldn’t have? Did I not do the last thing that He asked of me? Did I miss something? Am I out of His will? And I can’t come up with anything. His only responses to me have been: silence and ‘wait’.

                And so here I am… tired of the silence and tired of waiting, yet still waiting & pushing through the silence.
