“Whoever has My commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves Me”.

“Following hard after Jesus is the heart’s natural response

when it has been captured and has fallen deeply in love with Him”.

Heartache Mended

Walked today though stumbled
from tears and pain.
Heart rejected, dreams crumbled,
plans changed.
Creation called all along
lifted head to see.
Words spoken in the soft sunlight,
in the whisper of the leaves.
The call is quiet, barely known
heart refuses to hear.
Shadows and fog all around, bird
song of no cheer.
Something glows, it pulls
persisting through the haze.
No longer to hide
Love sent to amaze.
Why wait and go so far
what is longed for is near.
Held in arms strong
soft words drying tears.
No hurry, linger here,
let love curl around.
No other presence comes
with gentle sounds.
Place of healing, comfort swirls
gone the heavy weight.
Ever Faithful One, never shifting sand
cradling arms await.

Hi SS,
You did credit the poem heartache Mended. Who is it by? It's simply beautiful.
