Tears, the condition of miracle

 

Tears, the condition of miracle

 

 

One day, one sister called me. It was the sound of a twang. I was worried that she had a cold.  But she said that when she heard the praise, she was crying. How precious it sounds. The sister is still struggling to hold on to God. When you hear or sing praise and pray, the tears are shed, the tears are made to let your mate know how much you are sincere. The tears are bearing earnestness. In the tears, we meet the emotions of that person and eventually peek at the spirituality of that person. It is not the spirituality that pushes like a bulldozer but the spirituality of tears that meet with despair and find God in it, and do not leave God in it, but the spirit of faith that loves God nonetheless. God loves that spirituality. So God answered to Hezekiah when Hezekiah saw his death in his sickness and prayed in tears to God in despair. As evidence of this, God moved the order of nature to turn the sundial backward by 10 degrees, and God showed his testimony with all his heart, with all his soul and with all his power in the prayer of Hezekiah's tears. Not to mention the miracle of healing.

Hezekiah was the protagonist of miracles and conditions were not prayer days, prayer times, fast prayers, nor tongue prayers, but prayers of tears. God said he saw Hezekiah's tears. And God made him heal.

We can find in many places in the Bible that Jesus, who has come to this land, had pity for people and shed tears before he feeds the people and miracles to save the dead. Bible does not say that Jesus did some gestures or performances that got people clapping and drumming before doing miracles. He showed just tears. It is not the tears that come out of the faintheart, but the pity for the human being, the grudge from that reason, the desire for it to be raised to God, and the sublimation of all those apears to tears, eventually the tear history becomes the miracle work. This is what God wants.

Tears are not expressions of vanity and despair, but nevertheless, looking for God. Nevertheless, looking forward to God, Nevertheless loving God. it is the utmost eager expression that can be done as human being who loves God, and that can melt down the liver of God.  So It is the condition of God's work.
