Hot Tea at Sunrise

Having so much extra time on my hands right now has given me plenty of time to think and meditate on things that I have been harboring in my heart for quite a while. Some good and some not so good things. I have a lot on my mind right now, but I'm not really sure how to put them in words quite yet. (& to  be perfectly honest I don't think I would write about it on the internet...confide in a good friend yes, but writing it all out for just anyone to see, no way) However, mullling over some of these thoughts and memories reminds me of a song by Jill Phillips that I would (and still do) listen to when I am going through a hard time (or to help me go to sleep.) It reminds me that no matter what I might be going through or have been through that God will always be there and will never leave me or forsake me.

I AM by Jill Phillips
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 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

'cause 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

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 gently lay your head upon my chest
and I will comfort you like a mother while you rest
