I am often asked where I find my inspiration for sermons - this is one place. I believe God speaks to me daily and this is a place where you can look over my shoulder as I write some notes to myself as we journey towards Sunday . . .

Day 124 a note from God: Psalms 65-67 and 69-70
Silence is praise to you, Zion-dwelling God, And also obedience.
You hear the prayer in it all.
Psalm 65:1-2 The Message
Ever been at a loss for words?
Ever been at a loss for what to pray?
It has been said that "silence is golden" and here is possible proof.
God will not be deceived by your flowery words of praise.
In those moments when we do not what to pray, we need to heed this reminder and go before God with our silence. God will understand and hear the message of our silence.
We need to remain obedient in our faith. And in so doing our faith calls us into relationship with God.
Remember, sometimes the silence between two friends sitting together for an extended period of time can speak more than any words could ever say about the relationship.
Perhaps your relationship with God could use a little silence.
