He nestled his cheek against mine
Wrapped his arms around my body
and waited…

Unsettled I stood
Not wanting to be the first one to speak
How long would he hold me?
What would he finally say?

Pushing away I disentangled myself
Moved away
Looked at him
“Perhaps..” I said
And fled.

Will Jesus reject me now that I have run away?
Will he rest his cheek against mine again
and wait
for me to speak?

Yes he will.
He’s there now
Waiting for me
to unburden my heart to him
and bring more healing to my life.

Cheek to Cheek

I dreamt this and it felt so real. And Jesus does want to know us like this, cheek to cheek, as if we are the only person in the world. Even when we run away, scared of intimacy, he will be there, waiting.
