Be Still

"Be still," You said, "and know that I am God."
"Be hushed, My child, and hear Me speak to you."
Yet I cannot seem to be still
for even one second
or shut up
for one moment to hear Your voice.

Lord, I'm not asking for You to
calm the storm
or to quiet the noise around me;
I want You to calm Your child -
in the midst of the storm -
and shut me up so that I can hear You.
