Remember

Remember, shit I want to forget this every happen. When will this nightmare end? I hate the fact of her being gone and I have to relive it everyday! I'm sick of crying, I'm sick of the silent depression, I'm sick of knowing this isn't a dream and she is not coming back.

I don't want to forget her, just want to be with her, around her, hearing her heels click up the stairs, her smart and sassy remarks, rouge lips with a kool-aid smile, and her greedy appetite.

Hear My Cry, Lord.

This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. PSALM 34:6

Tears can fall during joyous occasion such
as a wedding or the birth of a child, as well as
when painful things-like stubbing your toe or
having a tooth extracted-occur. Then again,
tears can be prompted by sadness such as
==going through a divorce or losing a loved one.
Shedding tears is nothing to be ashamed of.
In fact, crying is evidence that you are human
and that you have feelings. The important thing
is having someone close by who understands your tears.
Christ Jesus cried at the report of the death
of Lazarus. His tears may have been an expression
of sadness at the death of His friend, or they
could have represented His joy in knowing
Lazarus would soon be brought back to life.
He may also have cried over the unbelief or lack of
faith that was evident in those around Him.
So, go ahead and cry. Cry when you are
happy. Let the tears fall when you are sad.
God has promised to be with you through
everything you face.
