Understanding Why We Cry: Embracing Joy and Sorrow in Faith

In Romans 12:15, we are called to share in each other's joys and sorrows. This teaching is echoed in the Bible through the tears of Jesus, who wept for Lazarus (John 11) and for Jerusalem (Luke 19). Paul also showed deep emotion in Acts 20, shedding tears for the Corinthians and the enemies of the cross (Philippians 3:17-19). These moments of crying hold profound significance in our walk of faith. Remember, one of God’s promises found in Revelation 21:4 assures us that He will wipe every tear from our eyes. Embrace the invitation to cry now, for it may save your soul later.
