There are very few times when I open my journal and the words don't flow. I can hardly remember the last time I was lost for words. So..this is epic. I don't know whether to consider this a good thing or not...? I strained and prayed and thought for a while, trying to figure out what I was feeling/thinking. The only words I could bring myself to write on the page were these:
"O, Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise."
Psalm 51:15
That's when the truth began to sink in.
So many of my words are...well...my words. And my words will eventually run out. My thoughts and ideas will soon be no more. That is why I need, more than anything, for the Lord to open my lips. I need His fresh thoughts to run through my mind.
So...I prayed for new revelation. I want to know something new! I asked the Lord to whisper a secret to me..something that's ONLY between us..an inside joke if you will.
My secret place is where I go to find Jesus. That's where He loves on me, where we play tag, where He tickles me until I cry, where we laugh until our sides hurt, we he plays with my hair, where He sings to me, where He whispers sweet secrets in my ear.
That's where I love to stay.
"Call to me and I will answer you
and tell you great and unsearchable
things you do not know."
Jeremiah 33:3
