My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.”
And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.”
Psalm 27:8 NLT
I hear you calling, Lord.
You invite me to draw near, to come closer to you.
I drop my urgency to get one more thing done and run into your arms.
Only when I am with you, Lord am I complete.
I smile.
You smile.
We don’t even talk.
We don’t do.
We be.
Be together.
Resting.
Holding.
Loving.
Thank you for always calling. For meeting me where I am, no matter how dirty, distracted or damaged I am.
You gently take me into your arms and soothe my wounds.
You are the good Shepherd.
And this little lamb is glad to find a home in your arms.
Hi Colleen,the image of a lamp is so powerful for me and reminds me often who I am and whose I am. blessings on your week
“And this little lamb is glad to find a home in your arms.”
Amen. I love that. Thanks Jean!
Thanks Dolly
ah, yes…Jean, only in Him, are we complete…love how you sit with Him then share with us..Thanks 🙂
Thanks Lisa. just over to your blog too. We must be thinking of each other today.
Sheep are such a great image too aren’t they? Thanks for stopping by today and leaving a comment
“We don’t do.
We be.”
Ah, that’s the best. Love this, Jean.
Where’s the love button? I have a friend who collects sheep – stuffed sheep, ceramic sheep, sheep sculptures – exactly for this reason. I think it’s the relationship illustration I like the best – taken care of and watched over. Thanks for the ‘just be’. Perfect.
I am learning more and more just to enjoy His presence. No words necessary! Have a great week, Mia
I love the image of the lamb in Jesus arms. Often when I can’t center, that is one picture I return to. Reminds me who I am and who I belong to. I agree no words necessary
Walking down lane we live on, I feel so small in the vastness of the mountains. Lately, I find myself comforted by that smallness. In acknowledging it, I can remeasure the things that seem so overwhelming. What can not be minimized, however, is how big God is, and by walking in His presence, and just acknowledging His voice, I can hide my smallness in Him, and trust that I can be enough.
Dear Jean
Yes, we don’t always need to talk to spend time with our Pappa. Just like any relationship, just being I His presence at times is the best.
Much love XX
Mia
Hi Jean! I want to be a lamb in his arms. I just have to stop being “Chatty Cathy” in prayer. It really is lovely to sit with him, like old friends. No words necessary. I think that is the highest prayer.
Happy Sunday!
