Jesus Sees the Empty Chair at Your Table

For the evening you set the table and your hand still reached for their plate.

The words

You set the table for one less person this year. And your hand still reached for their plate. I saw that. I'm sitting right here.

You laughed at dinner so nobody would worry. You don't have to do that with me. If the tears come here, let them come.

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. I'm not here to fill that chair. I'll sit beside it with you, every time you set the table.

A verse to hold on to

“Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.”

Matthew 5:4 (KJV)
