I Cry My Tears

I cried for a mother today, who lost her precious daughter. Helpless she stood as they took her away. No loud prayers, no wild protests, no offers to give up her life, to save her child, could keep her baby, from the jaws of death. Then she was resigned, broke down and cried, wept tears that seemed, would never cease. But when she stops a moment, the ache is still monumental. I cry my tears, to help wash away her suffering awhile and pray the Lord holds her tight, in His comforting arms, until she meets her child, in the hereafter. .

I cried for a father today, who lost his darling daughter. The subject of his unconditional love, his hope and joy, from her very birth. Never could he have imagined, a pain so gut wrenching, yet so paralysing, as he looked upon that dear face, his very life, lying lifeless . No one can fathom the misery, of a parent who has to bury a child. Kissing her one last time, he bid her farewell. I cry my tears, as he stands tearless, to help reduce the pain awhile and pray the Lord blesses him with abundant grace to endure this terrible tragedy .

I cried for a husband today, who lost his loving wife. She who had filled him with joy, his best friend. The one to whom, he had given his heart to keep, had left him, to be with the Lord. Standing there so lost, without his beloved mate, the one with whom he had hoped to spend the rest of his life, the one with whom he wanted to grow old, he was heartbroken. I cry my tears for him to help mend his heart and pray the Lord gives him peace and strength in his sorrow.

I cried for a brother today, who lost his dear sister. The one who had laughed with him, taught him right from wrong .The one who had been his strength and support, his champion, always. Who would he turn to, in his troubles, who would encourage him, when he was down ? His heart breaking, as he felt the pain of separation, he stood there so desolate . I cry my tears for him to alleviate his anguish and pray the Lord gives him comfort as he mourns.
