Tears are a unique aspect of human experience, a divine gift that allows for the expression of deep emotions and a profound connection with the Creator. They are not a sign of weakness but a testament to the capacity for compassion and empathy that has been instilled within us. When tears are shed, they can bring about a sense of relief and healing, serving as a release valve for the stress and pain that life often brings. Jesus Himself wept, demonstrating that expressing grief and sorrow through tears is not only natural but also holy. This divine sanction of tears invites individuals to embrace their emotional responses as a pathway to healing and a deeper spiritual connection.
"Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy!" (Psalm 126:5)
