OUR PILLOW OF LOVE

“I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.”
Psalm 6:6 KJV

Sometimes we put on a mask of happiness during the day but our hearts are breaking and when we go to bed at night and nobody can see us, the tears flow.  There are some days when it seems like everything has conspired against us and it makes the day seem very long and painful. 

However, when we go to bed at night and lay our head on our pillow of love, Jesus, He dries our tears with loving kisses as He tenderly pours a healing salve of compassion in our heart.  Jesus softly and gently whispers in our ears “I Love you”.  There is no friend like Jesus! 

No one loves us like Jesus loves us.  Thank You, Jesus, for being a Friend who really cares about us and Who never leaves us, not even for a minute.  You are never too busy for us.  Thank You for always being there and listening to us when we are hurting and our hearts are breaking. 

Yes, there are times when people hurt us and we go to bed feeling sad and all alone.  However, there are also times when we hurt our loved ones and friends and they go to bed with heavy hearts.  A lot of times we’re not even aware we have hurt them.  We need to be careful we don’t hurt people. 

May God forgive us if we have been guilty of saying thoughtless and unkind words to someone and he or she goes to bed with a broken heart because of us!  Jesus didn’t have a bed of love when He was here on earth so let’s make Him a bed of love in our heart so that He feels loved and wanted.
