Today Your voice is silent

But I can clearly hear

Your love that loudly whispers in my ear

And though I cannot see You

You’re not invisible

Your love is splashing color everywhere

I’ve never touched Your skin

But I can feel You now

Your fingerprints have left their mark on me

I can taste Your goodness

Its flavor fills my life

Replacing what was bitter for what’s sweet

The fragrance of Your love for me

Is something I can’t smell

But it’s lingering scent is unmistakable

And though I cannot see or hear,

Touch or taste or smell

The reality of You is unshakable.

I know You though I have not seen

I trust though I can’t hear

I lean into what I can’t feel

Because I know You’re near.

I savor what I cannot taste

Breathe in what I can’t smell

And ’til one day when faith becomes sight

My soul will sing, “It is well….”
