Have you been crying your eyes out lately over some unresolved problem in your life? Does it seem like no one really cares about you, that God doesn’t hear you when you pray? Have you cried enough tears to fill the ocean or at least your iced tea glass?
Well, I have good news for you. Those tears may not be wasted after all. I found a scripture that speaks of this very situation.
In Psalms 56 David cried out to God, in his trouble, and put his trust and confidence in God. “You number my wanderings; put my tears into Your bottle; are they not in Your book? Then shall my enemies turn back in the day that I cry out; this I know, for God is for me.”
God is saving your tears in a bottle, recording them in His book. They are not wasted. “They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.” Psalms 126:5.
“Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” Psalms 30:5.
Rev 21:4 says “God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”
Lift up your head, brush away your tears, and put your hope in the Lord. He is keeping track of all those tears you have cried and He will take care of this situation for you. God is for you. God is on your side. He is not against you.
He’s never failed me yet.
