TEARS by IRENE DOUGLAS

Hi - I have a new friend, Irene Douglas, and I noticed this poem she posted this morning. It touched my saddened heart today and I hope she doesn't mind my posting it on my blog. Have a good day, my friends and if you meet a sad friend today, tell them it's OK to shed tears.

TEARS,,,,

My dear friends in Jesus. i think i may have posted this poem

before, but often the Lord will take me back to something He

has already revealed before, but something I need to remember.

Today He reminded me of these particular words. I am sure these

words will be relevant to many more of God,s children.

Tears are words from the heart

words that cant be spoken

tears are God,s own cleanser

for a heart that feels its broken

Tears are our way of saying

my heart is torn in two

and   i  cannot find the words

to express my feelings to you.

Tears are often stiffled

the mind saying," this is wrong "

I will have to hide my tears

if Iwant to continue to be strong

But tears should never be hidden

they should be allowed to flow

for tears they water the heart

and so allow the seeds again to grow

God gave us a special place in our heart

where all our tears are kept

remember the Bibles shortest verse

Yes, you know it, JESUS WEPT

JESUS WEEPS.......
