Voice of Weeping




Psalm 6:6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears. Psalm 6:7a Mine eye is consumed because of grief - Psalm6:8b the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.

Surely these scriptures are a picture of one in utter grief.

In today’s world culture weeping is not cool. Suffering is an alien word even in Christian circles.

Somehow we have bought into the world system and think and many believe that following Christ means hardships, nails and a crosss. We have forgotten that our tears clear the dust, remove the heavy curtains that blind us from seeing our Lord more clearly.

The truth is that suffering is part of human existence and yet the other truth is that in that pit of pain and languish the Lord does hear the voice of our weeping.I wonder sometimes how people can make it without the knowledge of a loving Savior and a Father that cares. When I was little much as my Father loved me there were times I fell and hurt myself, other times bad things happened and there was nothing that my Dad could do except let me go through those pains so that I could grow a little more.
But, he was always there for me. I was never out of his heart and most times I am sure on His mind. God loves in a way that is far more complete than my earthly Dad could ever be.

Let us take courage that He does hear us. As it says in Isaiah 59:1 Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear. But to know that He hears you have to call with a voice of weeping.
