I have purchased a wonderful little book called The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse. It has wonderful pieces of wisdom and today I read “Tears fall for a reason and they are your strength not weakness.”
The way our world is today many tears are falling. Sometimes all the pain becomes more than we can bear. However, our loving God gave us the ability to cry. Those tears rolling down our cheeks can cleanse some of the pain. God did not promise that life would be without pain. Only that he would be there with us…and to help….he gave us tears.

God Gave Us Tears
There is a sacredness
Found within our tears
Not a mark of weakness
But of power, here
And they speak more
Eloquently
Then 10,000 words
Could ever be
They are messengers
A deep contrition of
Overwhelming grief
And unspeakable love
When more than we can bear
Our loving God ingrained
The ability to cry
To cleanse away our pain
See in their reflection
The truth of this insight
Indwelling compassion
In each drop shining bright

Years ago we sang a song, “Tears are a Language God Understands.”
He holds our tears in a bottle before him.
