If my arms could reach around you
I would never move
If my eyes could see you
I’d have no faith to prove
The wonder of invisible love
This is how it has to be
With you and me
The wonder of invisible love
When I fall I feel your arms
Before I reach the ground
Lord, I know your whisper
Though I’ve never heard the sound
The wonder of invisible love
This is how it has to be
With you and me
The wonder of invisible love
Someday there will be no time to mind
I will be your long awaited bride
We will dance away the night.

The Lord knows what we need. I spent a long, hard day today, feeling weary, sick, lonely, fearful...and He sent person after person to comfort and strengthen me. Then, right before supper, I curled up and cried and listened to this song over and over and begged Him for a hug. "I need you to hold me, Lord." Then, after supper, a friend asked me what was wrong and I told her how my day had gone, and she brought me to her dorm room and then held me in her arms for a long time and spoke words of truth to me of what God thinks of me and how He is using me and what He is doing in my life and what He is going to keep doing. She had no idea, but Jesus was reaching down to me through her arms and holding me and whispering to me through her voice. Maybe His love isn't so invisible after all. "For He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee..." Hebrews 13:5.
