Do the Tears Help?

Ever feel like you are crying more than you are praising? Your heart is so heavy with trouble that you can't help but to let the tears flow?

It happens. It happened to Hannah when she wanted a child so badly but was still not pregnant. It happened to David when his son, Absolam, overthrew his kingdom and he had to leave and seek refuge for fear of losing his life. It also happened when Jesus heard the news of His dear friend Lazarus dying. He wept.

So why is it that you feel weak and pathetic when you're so overwhelmed that you can't help but cry? Don't pay attention to your troubles but still go and worship the Lord. Pray to Him and inquire of His solution because even though He sees your tears they won't help solve your problem. Only your commitment to Him will. Hannah went to worship Him and God blessed her with a son, Samuel.

Every time you feel those tears starting to flow, open your mouth and offer the sweet fragrance of praise to Him. He will help you.

Blessings
