Noise

Greetings,
I have been pondering the increasing noise of our society,
Noise could be defined as sound and information that is less than useful.
A lot of the noise I find in my life seems to be necessary.
I believe this noise can be harmful to us when we are blasted into confusion and disorientation.
I have people calling me, telling me, asking me, texting me, and other things to me many times a day. I hear radio, play cds, and hear other media forms,
After all of this I am left weary and tired,........
I am reminded of the song flee as a bird to your mountain.
As a deer pants for the water so my soul pants for you,
Oh for an audience with God! Oh that I could hear his voice in this world of noise and unrest.
Even Jesus needed time away from others to be alone with God.
However there are times when it just does not suit to leave the cares and demands of life.
May we cry out to him in our weariness and need.
Let us leave the cares to seek our maker alone,
He alone has what we need to be strong,
Hear him speaking through the birds
Hear him talking from out the brook,
Jesus found life in doing the will of his father,
Jesus had strength to bear with his selfish disciples.
Jesus found strength to do his fathers will,
I pray our hearts can be filled to overflowing as we seek our maker,
That we can find answers to our questions and our sorrows be healed,
If God can do all he has done, surely he can take care of us,

Till next time
Paul

Hello to all of you, I am new at blogging and would like to have a place to share the thoughts that I  have about life. I find life to be a journey of mystery and adventure. I pray that by the grace of God that this blogs can be a encouragement and provide direction for you in your life and walk with God.

I guess my thoughts these last days are increasingly been trying to understand who God is.
is He everything, is he all things, is he all laws, and all facts, he is all love, in all things,
is he near, or is he far, am I alone, with out his care, or does he all my sorrows share.
Can I hear you Lord for once, please speak out loud, oh must I hunt,
Why are you silent and do not speak, is my heart not like yours, not very meek.
Lord I am simple and don't know how, you think and plan, down in this land,
it doesnt seem fair at all to me, with what goes on and what I see.
yet you are watching, always watching, at what we do and who we are,
will you move, down in my heart, let me be a child of you,
I feel lost, alone and dumb, I need you now Lord please do come,
 You have blessed me now I know, with wife and friends down here below.

I do believe in you dear Lord, you give me life for every day,
you gave me Love for those around, for everyone I know that lives in town.
What is math Lord, that I was taught, what is that, I do not know
what is right, and what is wrong, you must say, for I don't know
not what to think, or where to go
shall I go here, should I go there, or can I go most anywhere,
I need help yes Lots of help, from only you, Lord, you have what I need
I need a place of quiet peace, that is secure and sure and strong
is there sin Lord in my life, so I can hear your voice on high,
Am I to busy with all the things, that I can hear your voice near,
please let me know, what's wrong with me,
and you dear Lord, why can't I see.
you are hid, you are hid, out of my sight.
some time dear Lord, yes in the night,
I feel afraid and all alone, but you are near I know you are.
You Love me, you picked me up from the dark deep hole,
Where is was black, down in my soul.
You gave me Love, for sinners great.
and put your food upon my plate,
you did it before, to this soul of mine,
Please do it again, my heart refine.
You made my mind Lord and how mine works
all backwards and tipsy, with jerks and blurps
you must have a plan for me, just give me the grace and let me see.
what is it that you want out of me, Ok I listen.
How can I love, how can I live,
with out your help, for me to forgive
Lord there are folks, as bad as me,
they have problems, for all to see
Lord you are Great, I am small
I am nothing, you are everthing
I know nothing, you know everthing
I can't, but you can
I can choose, at-least it seems
really, I am amazing, for I am like you,
Oh dear oh dear now what do I do
Lord there is this and there is that
Ok to you I look again
Perhaps I don't see you because I am not looking for you.
now that is a thought.
But Lord there are things, I don't know what to do!!!!
This world is evil, and nobodys cares,
I give my life to you, someone I have never seen with my eyes,
I give my life to you, For me I believe, that you have a prize
I give my life to you, you answered my prayers,
 I give my life to you, what else can I do.
you are going to take it anyway, so I give it to you freely, to do what you like,
you can flush it away, however you like.
Just give me the strength, and give me the power, so I can go, through that very hour.
Lord this pulls me apart, and eats up my flesh, Lord I need hope,
God is a mystery, and so am I
God is amazeing and so am I
God is near, I think I am
God know a little, and so do I
God see My problems, and so do I (at-least a few)
God feels stuff, and so do I
God cares about me, and so do I
God has purpose, and so do I
God has a song, and so do I
God expects, and so do I
Lord give me the faith to trust you complete, To speak, to care, to love.
Sincerely yours
Paul H Good
