Silence ![]() Silence enfolds her life not a sound to be heard unable to know the difference this is her only world A world full of joy even though she cannot hear she sees so much more she lives without fear I was able to meet her in passing one day a blessing she gave me in a very special way I asked about her silence she only smiled and said "sick when a baby" that seemed to stick in my head I asked God "why her? I was sick too why did you let me hear why let me through?" He answered me quickly I was surprised you see He said "I spared your hearing so you could sing for me" I'm grateful for the talent that God has given me I'm grateful for the privilege and ability to sing Thank you God for sending an angel to open up my eyes for without that fateful day singing I would've denied Cpalmer August 13, 2001 God is our inspiration; Words of the heart can be music to our ears Cpalmer [This message has been edited by cpalmer (edited 08-16-2001).] |

A very touching way to praise him and to find understanding beyond yourself. The gift of voice is a wonderful ministry. Song can bring some very far away people to his fold. Enjoyed deeply. Sincerely, Regina |

I have family who are deaf - You've done a lovely job of portraying the loss of a sense - and the questions we ask of its value... I like this, C.. ![]() |

Nan, If there is anything I have learned in life it's that someone who has lost a sense have a broader look at the world...I thank God for them! Thanks for reading...I'm glad you liked it! Cindi |
