Day 3: The Language of Tears in Prayer

Tears in prayer are a powerful form of communication with God, a language that transcends words and conveys the depth of the human heart. When words fail to capture the intensity of one's emotions, tears can speak volumes. The biblical example of King Hezekiah, whose tears were seen and whose prayers were answered by God, demonstrates the potency of tears as a medium for connecting with the Divine. This silent language of the soul is understood by God, who sees the sincerity and depth of feeling behind each tear shed. Believers are encouraged to embrace their tears as a valid and potent form of prayer, especially in moments when words are insufficient. 

"You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?" (Psalm 56:8)

Reflection: Can you recall a time when your tears became a prayer to God, and how did you feel His presence in that moment?
