Tears
From the weeping will spring regrets and great rewards hard to believe that from a heart of sorrow the
Flow of hot burning tears I would tell you a truth these are worth more than compressed carbon yes
Diamonds they practically haul diamonds out in dump truck loads but they still convince people they are
Rare and of great value answer me this has God ever said he will collect diamonds in a bottle no but that’s
What he said he will do with your tears I failed when I wrote final curtain because I fully expected to
Come to the computer vent my anger my pain over the death of a friend it didn’t happen I write as the
Voice of God when people are in pain I use every thought every tender word to still their pain and
Sorrow so when I set down to write all my intentions dissolved and pure thoughts flooded my mind and
Soul so in mid stride everything changed all that I wrote in my head first then started to write out fell
Away so the comfort and realness in past pain when you felt helpless alone and said nobody sees or cares the one
Who calls each star by name they say a star is three hundred times the size of earth they are fixed in
Empty space by his command this same one when you were crushed and could hardly raise your head
Feeling helpless forgotten unknown the one who controls the ceats of power all over the world stopped
Everything came to your side knelt beside it wasn’t the sound of thunder but it truly was wonder that
Reached out touched your tear matted hair drained of all emotion exhausted your only comfort the
Darkness but in that moment the light of eternity imparted strength ever so imperceptibly the smallest
Seed of resolve also was planted in the depths it worked unnoticed while he was with you he collected
Your tears because in them every point of trouble every weight that pain exerted is totally seen and
Known by him from a distance he pulls all the facts out lays them bare then he starts to create the cure
If you are a praying person or have praying friends then help will appear even faster but either way he is
Moved by compassion as he holds up the bottle and by his own light every particle is read and
Understood you would ask if he cares that much why must I suffer pain in the first place for this simple
Reason we all have heard of someone being jaded or did you ever see such a hard person that is a place
That you can’t extricate yourself from the biblical telling of it is break up the fallow ground a perfect
Metaphor when talking to a culture steeped in agriculture nothing can grow on such dismal soil your
Life would be cutoff the enrichment and blessing would stop we all know of people that have a
Reputation forget it you can’t do anything with them tears soften your heart
now new rain even a mist works wonders
Flowers fruits in abundance spring up you have become a store house to feed the many who surprisingly
Come to your door you don’t look at them with disdain but with a heart that instantly says welcome
Come in I have all you need now
