A Bed of Love
“I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water
my couch with my tears.” (Psalms 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 and lay
on the pillow of love, Jesus, He wipes our tears away with His loving kisses and
pours a healing salve of understanding and compassion in our hearts. He leans
over our beds and 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. You
are wonderful, Jesus. You are the lily of the valley and the bright and morning
star. You are the King of kings and Lord of lords. All hail, King Jesus! Thank
You for loving us especially when we hurt You.
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. 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 hearts so that He feels loved and wanted.
