Friday Challenge

 As I was reading my Bible this morning, this verse really spoke to me

Romans 12:15 NKJV

[15] Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 

How often do we try to "fix" a broken situation? How often do we tell people to "move on" or "get over it"? How often do we give cliche answers when someone is dealing with grief, anxiety or depression? 

Even Jesus wept with Martha and Mary concerning their brother who had died. 

John 11:35-36 NKJV

[35] Jesus wept. [36] Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him!”

As Christians, we need to just sit next to hurting people and weep with them; not make them feel guilty bc they are hurting. 

I challenge you today to refrain from giving the "right" answers and just weep with those who are weeping. Sometimes that is the Godly thing to do. 

God Bless
