Silent Ways



No voice is sent to us in speech
By Him when He decides to reach
And touch the lives of those in need,
Nor do we often see the deed
Which He performs in ways unclear
To simple human minds down here.
Instead, our faith must help us "see"
That everything was meant to be
Unless we somehow did ignore
God's lesson taught to us before.
We need to "listen" in each prayer
And God will show how much He cares.
