Sometimes there are no
words. Nothing you need anyone to say. Sometimes, you just need someone to
hold you in their arms. To feel that they are there with you in the moment –
loving you.
Sometimes we don’t always know what to say to someone else.
We don’t know what to do and we understand that we can never fix their hurting
heart. But we can love them. We can
hold them when they cry. We can be there with them – in the moment.
Sometimes, we are by ourselves in the silence. No one is
there with us. Yet, we are still hurting. Still feeling. Still needing. And in that moment, there comes to us a sense of
peace and warmth. Despite the grief or loss we are feeling, we strangely feel
wrapped up in love.
That’s God. He is there with us in that moment.
In that silence. He is wrapping His arms around us, loving us.
A gesture like that is so huge. So encompassing. It shows us
we are not alone. We are loved. We are cared for. We will make it through.
Love is everything.
Touch is everything. It speaks loudly. Its impact lingers
long after we leave. It heals. It helps. It loves.
Sometimes there ARE no words. There IS nothing we
can do - except love. Except
be there. Except hold someone in our arms and let them hurt with the knowledge
they are not hurting alone.
That alone, is
everything.
