It’s Okay To Cry
John 11:35 (NLT) Then Jesus wept.
People cry for all sorts of reasons, and that’s okay. If our emotions warrant a flow of tears from our eyes, thank God for wiring us with a way to release some pressure. It has its purpose. Are we as strong as we try to be when we suppress the tears that beckon to relieve us of our emotional overload? No, we aren’t. God was precise in His craftmanship when He made us able to express how we feel in different ways. Crying is a tender way of filtering out what we’re feeling inside. Are you happy, sad, angry? Do you feel like you just need a good cry? Go ahead and do it. It’s okay. Jesus is proof of that.
