Trusting God Even with Your Tears

“There is a sacredness in tears. They are not a mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition and of unspeakable love.” ~ Washington Irving

As Nicholas was learning, having faith doesn't mean you can't cry. It just means that you can trust God, even with your tears." ~excerpt from St. Nicholas: The Believer, by Eric and Lana Elder

"Jesus wept." ~John 11:35

He is praying...

"If I could hear Christ praying for me in the next room, I would not fear [anything].... Yet distance makes no difference. He is praying for me." ~Robert Murray McCheyne

 

  "Christ Jesus is...at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us." ~Romans 8:34
