Listen to the Heart 1987

Sit still, Little One
I want to rock you: I would comfort you
Let me hold you
Go ahead and cry on my shoulder, Little One.

I love you so
And you are so lonely for Me!
Trying to fill up the empty space with things that bring you joy.

They bring you joy only because they witness to Me
I am the joy your soul thirsts after.

Go ahead, then, enjoy my witness
The things you love--I created them
The Land you hope for--I hold it for you, Little One
I understand.

I understand your pain as you watch Eden gone awry
I understand.
I created you
I have wrought thee, and should I treat it as a light thing?
No, Little One.
I am laboring to bring it all to thee
All for thee, because I love you.

You are mine, and Little One, I am thine.
Thou art my heart’s desire
How I yearn for thy heart
How earnest I am for thy tears.
