Holy Week Meditation -- Saturday, April 3, 2010

Silence from God . . . that's what the disciples experienced immediately after the crucifixion of Jesus. If you think about it, silence from God is not all that unusual for in Scripture you will find more time when God is silent than when He speaks. In these times of silence, God still expects faith and obedience from His people.

We often experience silence from God especially in times of testing or suffering. Maybe it would do us good as we come to the end of Holy Week--and in times of testing or suffering--to just be silent and wait before the Lord.

The Lord is in His holy temple

The Lord is in His holy temple

Let all the earth keep silence

Let all the earth keep silence before Him

Keep silence, keep silence

Keep silence before Him

Amen
