Winter Warmth

“While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease.” (Genesis 8:22)
Remember, My child,
When cold it may be,
In the winter of life
You are closest to me,
Yes, just as the sun
Hovers closest to earth
In the coldest season
Before spring rebirth,
So too I am with you
Indeed all the more
When the snow falls,
When cold rain does pour.
So do not grow weary,
Do not let tears fall,
For Your Jesus is here
Throughout it all.
I am kissing your days
With brightest sunshine
I am warming your heart
With pure love divine,
I am filling your soul
With peace deep and pure,
I am uplifting your spirit
With love to endure,
So embrace the storms,
The bitter cold days too,
For I promise, little one,
I am all the closer to you.
Yes, rejoice, My child,
When cold it may be,
For in the winter of life
You are closest to me!
