If you were to walk up to my father and talk to him for two seconds you can see how strong he is. I have seen my father cry a grand total of two times in my life. The first time was when we first moved to Boston. I was super young and don't remember that time as clearly as the second. The second time I ever saw my father cry was when we lived in Arizona. I remember that day like it was yesterday. It was a Tuesday morning, I was in the kitchen and then the phone rang. My middle-school self, jumped for the phone wondering who it might be. I looked at the caller ID and instantly my heart sank. I picked up the phone to my grandmother bawling. I heard my father pick up the phone in his bedroom. I then put the phone down and started to cry. No words were said, but I knew my great-grandpa had died. I walked into my parent’s room to see how they were. I looked directly at my father, his face was in his pillow and he was bawling. This hit me hard, like I said before, this was only the second time I had ever seen him cry. Seeing my father like that hit me hard, watching your idol break down and ball his eyes out hurts. Y’all, this is how our Heavenly Father feels every time we sin. That's so tough to swallow, but it's so true. He's cramming his face into a pillow and bawling his eyes out. May this be a reminder to us that we are nothing and HE is everything. Jesus spent 40 days in the desert without giving into sin or temptation. Jesus was tempted with everything and he overcame it. May this be a reminder to us that we CAN go 40 seconds without falling into sin. No matter how much pain we make our FATHER endure he is always there for us. HE had nails driven into his hands and thorns pierced his skull. "But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed." Isaiah 53:5. We are not worthy of the strength of our FATHER. No matter what you are going through, know that JESUS has overcome it and can rescue you. Don’t be afraid to run back to the FATHER arms open wide. Our FATHER is stronger than any other. HE moves mountains for us and we take it for granted. Every person reading this needs to know that I am praying for them and praying that they strive to seek out the Father and his unfailing love!
