Wiped the Tears - summer

Has anyone ever really wiped the tears from your eyes?

Placed their finger tenderly on your face

removing the sorrow and fear from that place?

So the Lord has promised

(how we’ve longed for it here)

it’s not a figurative form of tears

He will touch us every one

with the comfort of His being near. 

Revelation 21:4

Natural Warmth - summer

The love of our Lord is a natural warmth

akin to summers reaching rays,

enveloping, holding, keeping us close

with His inviting ways.

Embracing us in soothing peace

no wicked wind from which we pull away

Keep us in your abiding glow

and don’t ever let us go…
