Don't Cry

 

‭
Luke 7:13 CEV‬  When the Lord saw the woman, he felt sorry for her and said, “Don't cry!”

Jesus encounters a grieving woman. Her heartache is palpable, her tears flowing freely.

But when the Lord gazes upon her, compassion wells up within Him. His words, tender and comforting, echo through the ages: “Don't cry!”

This simple yet profound utterance reveals the depth of Jesus' empathy. He doesn't merely acknowledge her pain; He steps into it, sharing her sorrow.

His divine compassion bridges the gap between heaven and earth, touching the wounded places in our hearts.

In this verse, we glimpse the heart of our Savior—a heart that reaches out to the broken, whispers solace, and offers hope. It reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we are not alone. The One who stilled the stormy seas also wipes away our tears.

May we, too, learn to extend compassion to those around us, echoing Jesus' words: “Don't cry!” 🌟

Prayer:

Heavenly Father,

We come before You with hearts burdened by our own sorrows and struggles. Just as Jesus saw the grieving woman and said, "Don't cry," we ask for Your comfort and solace in our moments of pain.

Lord, wipe away our tears.
Speak peace to our troubled hearts.
Remind us that You are near, even when we feel alone.

May we extend the same compassion to others, reaching out to those who weep, offering a listening ear, and sharing the hope we find in You.

Let our lives echo the Savior's love, bringing healing to broken hearts and pointing others to Your unfailing grace.

In Jesus' name, we pray.
Amen.
🙏

The Power of Words

The tongue can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences. Proverbs 18:21‭ NLT The tongue is a powerful tool. It can be used to build up or tear down, to encourage or discourage, to heal or harm. The Bible says that the tongue "can bring death or life; those who love to talk will reap the consequences" (Proverbs 18:21). Our words have the power to affect others in a profound way. They can make someone feel loved and appreciated, or they can make them feel hurt and rejected. They can build someone up or tear them down. They can be used to spread gossip and lies, or they can be used to speak truth and love. The way we use our words is a reflection of our character. If we are quick to speak harsh words, it shows that we are not kind or compassionate. If we are constantly gossiping and spreading rumors, it shows that we are untrustworthy and manipulative. But if we are careful about what we say and use our words to build up others, it shows that we
