Weeping may last for the night, but a shout of joy comes in the morning. Psalms 30:5
Many of us know what weeping in the night is all about. Those times of true aloneness, when no other human being is apart of what we are experiencing. When we lie in our beds and are suffering some great emotional, physical, or relational time of distress, something which is breaking our hearts. The times of raw pain that are so deep we know that we can not handle them by ourselves. And we can not!
Only the Lord Jesus Christ can come and enter into these times of darkness.. Only His death and resurrection, allow His wonderful comforting love and Presence to come along side of us in these times of great sorrow. His Light shines in darkness," for in Him there is NO darkness" and by His Light He can lead us up and out of the pit of despair and grief: bring us above our suffering to His throne, where we find peace comfort and safety.
God created us. He knows us our beginning and our end. He alone knows what each of us need at every moment of our lives. He wants to be with us in our pain and suffering, for He knows all about these emotions. He, Himself suffered the greatest example of pain ever recorded, flogged, beaten, spit on a thorn of crowns brutal stuck into His head, then hanging on a cross, nailed by spikes in each hand and through his feet, willingly dying there for my sin so that I might have eternal life through His resurrection, which would come after His death.. Jesus Christ the Son of God knows what it is to feel, pain and sorrow and suffering. He knows what we feel and can, and does walk us through any dark valleys nights full of tears we may be going through. We never have to be alone in or grief or sorrow. There is One who has bore them for us.
If we are believers we are promised not to be alone. Jesus tells us in Scripture that, "I will NEVER leave you or forsake you"....Hebrews 13:5
I have been in a dark, dark valley of tearful nights over these past weeks , suffering some of the most profound pain and sorrow I have ever experienced. Nights of sickness and hurting, that have brought so many tears, I often wonder how they could keep flow on and on. Nights when I like Paul could say I could despaired of life it's self. Death would have been welcome.
But Jesus My Lord and Savior had another plan. Light into my darkness and the wiping away my tears. He brought His wonderful, prefect love and comforting light right into my darkness, when I cried out to Him, bringing me help and hope, because He is hope. He's is the Light and hope of all mankind and His precious loving Presence in times of adversity is beyond description.
He comes into my valley of tears and says, "I am with you, you are not alone. You may weeping during the night but joy comes with the morning. My joy, for those who follow Me." Our weeping, for whatever reason, is promised to turn to joy if we let Him in and let Him light our darkness.
Jesus has promised to wipe away every tear..Rev.7:17.. And for this daughter of Christ, that is exactly what He has been doing. We, Jesus and I, have been passing through the "valley night of tears" and are moving toward the morning and the joy that He will bring.
Gods ways are not our ways. Many ,, many times we will not understand the adversities and difficulties of this life. But wether we believe or do not believe in Him doesn't change the fact that He exists. He Is Alive and resurrected into a new life and we can share it with Him, here on earth and later in heaven when He calls us home, if we choose to walk with Him.
Everyone travels through the valley nights of tears---sorrow, grief, pain-- The question is do we travel them alone, or do we walk with the One who loves us enough to die for us, If we walk with the Lord our nights through the valley of tears will be filled with His grace and mercy and He will lead us into mornings of joy. The joy of the Lord.
Sweet Lord only You know why we must travel in these valley nights of tears. And only You can walk with us through them, bring your peace, comfort and love when we " trust in You and lean not on our own understanding. Thank You Lord that the suffering You allow, can result in the greatest blessing we can know...Your Marvelous Presence.. We can Praise You, not for the adversity it's self whatever the cause, but that You are therewith us in every step we take and every tear we shed. I pray Lord Jesus for anyone who may find themselves in this "valley" right now. May they also experience Your peace and light. You Lord Jesus. Only in You.
In Your very Precious Name I ask Jesus, Giving thanks for all You will, for You are good.
