He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.

(Revelation 21:4 ESV)

“No tear is wasted, not one went unseen, not one fell without purpose. He sees your pain, He hears your heart. He is with you in every moment. He will turn your sorrow into strength.”

This was sent to me from a dear friend who got it from a dear friend of hers. I have always heard that God sees our tears. He collects them and saves them. No tear is shed that He doesn’t know about.

God cares so much about us and the things that concern us, that He will collect our tears and keep them. I have heard He holds them in His hand but I have also heard he keeps them in bottles. Either way, it’s comforting to know He cares so much for us.

God loves us all. I have known this my whole life. I know that His children are the apple of His eye. I find it so comforting. He really loves us no matter what we do, He still loves us. He is right there ready to forgive us for the things we do and to take us back to the fold when we stray.

So if you have strayed, repent. God is waiting. He has every tear you have cried safely preserved.
