Tears


Sometimes there's nothing left to do but cry. Cry out to the One who sees, hears, knows every reason for every tear, and holds you while they must fall. In I Samuel 30:1-6, David and his men "wept aloud until they had no strength to weep." David's wives had been captured. He was in distress because the captors were talking of stoning him, and it says he was "greatly distressed." But, listen to this..."But David found strength in the Lord His God." But...

Are you there, where you feel you have no more tears left in you cry? That you are all dried up? Or that you do not even have the emotional energy it takes to cry anymore. Oh how I know where that place is. I have been there more times than I care to recall. But...if David found strength in the Lord his God, then so can you and I.

And if you must cry, cry out to Him. He hears. He holds us. He holds every tear in His bottle. You truly can cast all your cares on Him, because He cares for you.
