With all the anticipation leading up to the WIRED launch yesterday, I could feel myself a bit on the emotional edge. This isn’t saying much as I can get emotional when watching a Disney movie with the kids.
All week the song “Word of God, Speak” had been in my head. I had been listening to the Kristen Chenoweth version in my office (Yes, I am a HUGE KC fan!). As I left the house yesterday morning for the short drive to the church, the MercyMe version of this song came on KLOVE. The words of the song really captured the place of my heart and my eyes filled with tears as God’s presence filled the old Suburban. Yes, you can worship in a Chevy.
I share the lyrics with you-
“I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay
The last thing I need is to be heard
But to hear what You would say
Word of God speak
Would You pour down like rain
Washing my eyes to see
Your majesty
To be still and know
That You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest
In Your holiness
Word of God speak
I'm finding myself in the midst of You
Beyond the music, beyond the noise
All that I need is to be with You
And in the quiet hear Your voice
I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay”
As we move forward with WIRED, may God’s words be the only words we hear.
