And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only. Often we think of tears only as a sign of weakness, but they have great power. Tears can decompress the chest and untie the knot in our throat.
Tears can say much more than words.
I want us to explore the value of tears in the sermon Sunday entitled Tears. I want us to realize that tears represent the heart and soul of a person. We need to appreciate again how tears helped those near the cross and how important tears were to Jesus. While I m preaching we will hear the poignant music of Agnus Dei by Samuel Barber. I will be attending a pastor s retreat for Tri State Disciple Pastors at Major Butler State Park in Kentucky on March 27-28.
