Poetry: Just Right Arms

Jesus’ arms are not short,Not clutched to His chest so tight,Nor so long they go aroundLeaving you and I behind.No. Not at all.Instead, they hold us up when we fall,Comfort against His loving heart,Protect from life's stormsAnd frightening nights.Neither too long or short,Jesus' arms offerStrength and and help and hope,For Jesus' arms are--for you and for me,Just right.By Carolyn R ScheidiesRead more like this in Journey of FaithPrint and Kindle versions
