Today's word of Encouragement is Tears, I like the fact that weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. We are going to shed tears in one way or another, but if you're anything like me: you would rather your tears be joyful tears instead of tears of sadness and pain.  On many occasions in the bible; Jesus did cry tears, he wept over the death of Lazarus.  Crying tears is an embarrassment for most men, because they think it shows that they are weak, when it's the exact opposite.

Crying is a natural emotion of mankind, it relieves stress and emotional pain ; when we cry real tears. If we have to cry ; lets cry and get it over with,and get on with life.  just remember that crying is a natural act, if we weren't suppose to cry, God would have made tears in the  first place.
