The Counselor

I saw the love of Jesus,

I felt His gentle grace,

as I poured my heart out to you,

recounting pain-filled days.

You didn't have to listen

there in that quiet space,

but the depth of your compassion

reflected in your gaze

touched my wounded spirit

to heal the hidden place

as I saw the tears of Jesus

glistening on your face.

"When Jesus saw her weeping.....
He was deeply moved in spirit
and troubled.......Jesus wept."
(John chapter 11: verses 33-35)
