But when you pray, go away by yourself, shut the door, and pray to your Father in private (Matthew 6:6; NLT).
…I have calmed and quieted myself (Psalm 131:2; NLT).
Be silent before the Sovereign Lord (Zephaniah 1:7; NIV).
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him (Psalm 37:7; NIV).
If only you would listen to his voice today! (Psalm 95:7; NLT).
…the kingdom of God is within you (Luke 17:21; KJV).
Lord,
I’m alone, at last.
I have closed my door,
Then calmed and quieted myself
Before you.
Silent and still,
I wait patiently,
Listening for your voice
Within my soul.
