RDM #8 - Golden Noise


Another one from my archives. I've been doing a lot of writing and poetry lately, so I thought I would pull one of my poems out and dust it off. It's short, but who really wants to read too much this early on a Monday morning?

GOLDEN NOISE

So I wrote this poem a while ago, and tonight at my bible study group I started thinking about it. How often do we ignore the call for our lives, because we are afraid of what it will mean for us. Do we really want to hear GOD? Sometimes I am not sure.

In silence we hear
The Call to our own true self.
Hence the noise we make.

For more of my poetry, check out my other page, or go to fictionpress.

  4. There's painful wisdom in that. I'm curious if you came to it in the silence or the noise?
