Thank You for Gentle Consolation-

Through true femininity and beauty that's been gifted and revealed to me, the gentle comfort and rest the Lord gives me has been much more tangible lately. There's so much tenderness inside a woman that has the capacity to envelope and console a tired and weary heart, one that overworks, never sleeps, and is just TIRED. So thank you both for rest. Mmmmm



Oh gently lay your head
Upon my chest
And I will comfort you
Like a mother while you rest
The tide can change so fast,
But I will stay
The same through the past,
The same in future, same today


I am constant
I am near
I am peace that shatters all your secret fears
I am holy
I am wise
I'm the only one who knows your heart's desires
Your heart's desires

Oh weary, tired and worn,
Let out your sighs
And drop that heavy load you hold
Cause Mine is light

I know you through and through;
There's no need to hide
I want to show you love
That is deep and high and wide


Oh gently lay your head
Upon my chest
And I will comfort you
Like a mother while you rest

-Jill Phillips, "I Am"
