I went for a walk with God today

We talked. Well I mean I talked with words – He talked with actions.

I asked ‘God where are you?’

And a tree waved at me - swaying - with His wind.

I said ‘God I can’t feel you.’

And a breeze brushed my cheek and gently blew wisps of hair away from my face.

I whimpered ‘God I can’t hear you.’

And then the leaves of the tall towering trees said ‘shshshshshhshshshsh’

I went for a walk with God today.

We talked. I talked with words – He talked with actions.

God waved at me and said ‘here I am. I’m right here.’

God touched my cheek and said ‘you’re worrying. Don’t worry.’

God swayed me quiet and said ‘I’ve got you. I always have you.’

I could have missed it – all that He said.

Head down. My heart silent - I could have missed it all.

And yet, even if I hadn’t spoken –

The tree would have still waved to say ‘here I am. I’m right here.’

The breeze would have still touched my cheek to say ‘don’t worry.’

The leaves of the trees would still shoosh me to say ‘I have you. I always have you.’

I went for a walk with God today. We talked and talked.

I said ‘I missed You.’

He said ‘I love you.’
