When God is Silent

What do you do
When God is silent?

When you've run out of prayers
and the bookshelf is empty,

When the world is screaming
and your mind is paralyzed in fear,

When faces are blank
and eyes are darkened,

When words are empty
and hearts are closed,

When friends defer
and evil defends?

We do as the scriptures ask - sit as still as air
and search the innermost chambers of our hearts to find that

When God is silent
it is because he has already spoken.
