Companionship is Gone - Day 126

Companionship is Gone
Day 126

Picture yourself at the dinner table laughing with your spouse. Picture your spouse in his or her favorite room or chair. Picture your spouse hugging you while you cry.

"The greatest loss is the company of that person, having him there," says Nancy, who lost her husband. "He had a favorite chair. You look over at that chair, and he is no longer in that chair. He was always there to lift me up if something was wrong."

Now picture yourself at the dinner table dining with Jesus. Picture yourself in your favorite room or chair with Jesus close by your side. Lastly, picture Jesus enfolding you in His arms, covering you completely with the sleeves of His robe and just pouring out His love into your whole being.

Be filled with His great love today.

"This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might love through him.... And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives n love lives in God, and God in him." (1 John 4:9, 16).

Lord Jesus, today I will crawl into Your arms of love and just rest. Amen.
