Jesus Wept.





Two of the most powerful words in the Bible are that Jesus wept when he heard of the death of his friend Lazarus.  Somehow in the mystery of life, the God of the universe enters fully into life with us.  He stands with us in the full depth of our being.  He feels our pain.  He weeps with us.  He certainly is weeping over the deaths of all those in Connecticut today.  Sometimes there are no words adequate.  Often our own wounds prevent even our tears from flowing  freely.  For God those tears flow.  Be still and weep and pray.  May God stand with those families and give His comfort to many today and in the painful days ahead.
