Was listening to Phillips, Craig & Dean- the Ultimate Collection yesterday, heard the album many times over but somehow yesterday the song "Let my words be few" stood out. Don know why, never really noticed it before, and somehow yesterday it just struck me...
You are God in heaven
And here am I on earth
So I'll let my words be few
Jesus, I am so in love with You
And I'll stand in awe of You, Jesus
Yes, I'll stand in awe of You
And I'll let my words be few
Jesus, I am so in love with You
The simplest of all love songs
I want to bring to You
So I'll let my words be few
Jesus, I am so in love with You
And last night sprawled on my bed, decided randomly to read Ecclesiastes for QT... Don ask me why, this scatter-brain quirk's as random as anyone can get... So i just started reading... And when i came to Chapter 5..
"Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know that they do wrong. Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart, to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few. As a dream comes when there are many cares, so the speech of a fool when there are many words. When you make a vow to God, do not delay in fulfilling it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow. It is better not to vow than to make a vow and not fulfill it. Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, "My vow was a mistake." Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands?
Much dreaming and many words are meaningless.
Therefore stand in awe of God."
To this dreamer, this big & loud-mouthed girl who yakked and whined and complained a tat too much lately, there is much much to reflect upon..
You are in heaven and i am on earth, let my words be few, let me stand in awe of You. Jesus, help me be in love with You.
