Babble

Psalm 62:5--"For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him."

Although my life is filled with words--talking, writing, the chatter inside my head--I will not find God in myself. I will find God in the silence. It's not what I think or feel. It's not whatever narrative I come up with to explain or understand anything about life, salvation, or the nature of God. It's all babble. The only thing that really matters, the only truth is the word of God. So I must remember that. Rest in his word, seek his word, and believe/live by his word.
