Where are the tears?
Psalms 126:5 tells us "those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy." Do we ever cry anymore? I remember as a young man being a Youth Pastor and I would literally cry over the precious young people that were in our youth group. We used to cry during worship, over souls, and at the altar of God. We cried for others and our own salvation. It seems today we have grown up and we don't need that emotional release. But the Bible is clear that if we " go out weeping we will come home with shouts of joy"! You see I think there is a process there, that when we get to the place of surrender and the tears come, then God can move through our brokenness and humility. Tears can also be tears of joy and victory. Oh for the tears of joy over souls that have been changed by the power of the Lord! Let us never get too mature in the Lord for tears to freely fall down our cheeks. Jesus, soften my heart today, Lord let the tears flow.
