Thought for today:

If you want His answer

by Paramahansa Yogananda

Whether He replies or not,

Keep calling Him---

Ever calling in the chamber

Of continuous prayer.

Whether He comes or not,

Believe He is ever approaching

Nearer to you

With each command of your heart's love.

Whether He answers or not,

Keep entreating Him.

Even if He makes no reply

In the way you expect,

Ever know that in some subtle way

He will respond.

In the darkness of your deepest prayers,

Know that with you He is playing hide and seek.

And in the midst of the dance of life, disease, and death,

If you keep calling Him,

Undepressed by His seeming silence,

You will receive His answer.
