Nourishment for Your Soul and Mind: July 28, 2021

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve talked to my Father about this heart of mine. The tears come so easily for me. I am a certified crybaby to all who know me. In deep conversations with my Poppa, He has told me it’s because He’s given me His heart. Wow. How can I do anything but embrace who I am, tears and all? When I read today’s verse, I felt it. It’s two words, but powerful ones. “Jesus wept.” ~ John 11:35 He was God in human form and He had emotions like you and me. He expressed deep sorrow with tears. He wept. This verse just got me today as we laid my cousin to rest. I saw so many tears falling. We will see her again because of the blood of Jesus that allows us to leave this world to a better place and avoid the sting of death. Jesus still weeps for the lost and is calling them to repentance. I couldn’t help but feel tears falling down my cheeks for those He is calling. It’s not not too late. Listen to His voice, He’s calling. He is the way, the truth, and the light. He can reach down in your pit of despair and lift you out. Drugs, depression… whatever it is, it is no match for the blood of Jesus, He weeps for YOU! Answer His call. 💛 ~ Chelle, #f8ithgal
