Ecclesiastes Chapter 5:1-7

1 Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil. 2  Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth. Therefore let your words be few. 3 For a dream comes with much business, and a fool’s voice with many words. 4 When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it, for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow. 5 It is better that you should not vow than that you should vow and not pay. 6 Let not your mouth lead you into sin, and do not say before the messenger that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice and destroy the work of your hands? 7 For when dreams increase and words grow many, there is vanity; but God is the one you must fear.

For the past few weeks, all I could seem to do is come before God in silence; letting my words before my be few. And there is a remarkable learning experience in simply being silent – even more so than when i come with words, emotions, and requests. My gaze is focused on the Creator and my ears are attentive to what He has to say, or more like who He is – I am mesmerized by His beauty, His Holiness, and His greatness.

I was asking to go deeper, but in reality I was treading and struggling to stay above the water out of the fear of what lied beneath the visible and the tangible. But when I remained still, I ever so gracefully sunk into the water going deeper and deeper into the depths of His heart.

Deep calls to deep.
