No Words

I sit to write. Nothing. It is as if all the possible word combinations that could make up the next 500 or so words have just disappeared or maybe just become so scrambled that I can't understand.


Today there are no words. Nothing but the question 'why?'.


This week is harder than I thought it would be. I hurt more than words can say. I am led to a song by Austin French and the lyrics sum up exactly how I am feeling - just because I don't have the words doesn't mean God doesn't know and doesn't mean others haven't expressed them before.

Why God Do people have to die? A daughter or a son Sudden and so young Long before their time?


I don't understand But I understand

Why God, I need You It's, why God, I run to Your arms Over and over again It's, why God, I cling to Your love And hold on for dear life And I find, You are right by my side


Give me a faith stronger than I have I need to know when it hurts this bad That You hold my heart when it breaks And I'm not alone in this place

Perhaps there are times when words are not needed and we learn how to simply ‘be’ with God and allow him space to minister his grace to us.
