Your Tears Tell a Story

Tears often speak when words cannot. Each drop that falls carries the weight of your heart—sorrow, longing, joy, or relief. The Bible reminds us that God notices every tear. Psalm 56:8 says, "You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?" What a tender picture of a God who not only sees your pain but treasures it.

Tears are not weakness; they are evidence of your humanity and God's nearness. When Lazarus died, Jesus Himself wept (John 11:35). The Savior of the world didn't hide His tears—He entered into the grief of those He loved. If Jesus cried, you can too. Your tears connect you to His compassion.

Sometimes we cry because the pain feels unbearable. Other times because the joy is too much to hold. In both moments, God listens. Your tears are prayers, even when your lips can't form the words.

So don't be ashamed of what falls from your eyes. Your tears tell a story—a story God is writing with love, hope, and redemption. And one day, He promises to wipe every tear away (Revelation 21:4). Until then, your tears are safe with Him.
