How often do you Cry?
Why do we cry? Sadness, joy, anger, excitement? All of the above? As I worshipped today during my car ride to a meeting with a potential new job, I found myself choked up and in need of a great release. To tell you that I can pinpoint the emotion behind these tears would be down right a lie. I want to say I felt overwhelmed with joy or hope but as I sit with the feeling, I can only think, could some of the tears that are being released in these moments of worship actually be tears from the built up trama I’ve hidden deep down in my mind and body? The trauma that I never cried because “I am strong” or the trauma that I just couldn’t comprehend because of my immaturity? I am not sure! But what I do know was, right after I let those tears go, finished my worship song, and pulled into the driveway of my meeting. I pulled down the small 4×6 mirror from the sunvision, looked at myself, wiped the tears and smiled right back at the inner child. The rest of the day came with great Joy and Love because healing came. Chains broke and another broken piece of me was healed!
