Romans 8: 26-27 "In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will."

God hears the unspoken prayer at the depths of our hearts, and knows our most profound dreams even when we do not fully realize them ourselves. Today, I had a moment of such clarity and blessing about this truth that I could not stop crying all day. The Holy Spirit was so present and God's timing so perfect, that as I sit here hours and hours later, I am still flooded with emotion. I was not shedding tears of sorrow, but of gratitude and joy. It was not over anything other than the clarity that God knows me better than I know myself, and reveals things to me in ways that I never expect. Was this uncovered dream realized? Well, not yet, but He showed me a very concrete way that it could be, and this happened directly after I prayed about our upcoming life transition. Instead of it being overwhelming, which it certainly could be, He showed me that it could instead bring a joy I had never dared to dream was possible, and He wrapped it in the warm loving comfort that only He can. 

I know times are very difficult right now, and there is so much to worry about, but if we are still before the Lord, He will hear the unspoken prayer of our hearts.
