I pounded on heaven\u2019s doors for months, only to be met with God’s silence. The need for a job that haunted my thoughts day and night made it difficult to focus on the worship service. However, when the praise team began singing \u201cGod Will Make a Way,\u201d my voice caught, and my eyes filled with tears. God heard my cries and responded to my need. More than employment, I yearned to know he hadn\u2019t forgotten me. I had no idea how he\u2019d work things out, but I knew he would. Though God was silent, he was listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Words set to music nourish our souls in ways words alone don\u2019t. The songs below have spoken to me in times of God\u2019s silence. I pray they\u2019ll also encourage you, leading you to the God who\u2019s waiting to hold you close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On a ski trip, Don Moen\u2019s sister and brother-in-law\u2019s van was hit by an 18-wheeler with such force that all four of their children were thrown out. The cries of the children enabled their parents to find them in the darkness. However, only three survived. Moen flew to the funeral, wondering what he could say to comfort his family. God gave him a song based on Isaiah 43:19<\/a><\/em>: I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert (ASV)<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cGod will make a way
When there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me.
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side.
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way, He will make a way.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
