Gods tear bottle

When was the last time you cried?
Years, months, weeks or perhaps you are doing this very minute.
Some people view it as childish or not manly.
King David one of the bible's most bravest warriors was known to have a good old sob more often than not.

Psalm 6:6

King James Version (KJV)
6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.

So if you weep from more often than not, don't worry you are in good company. Are you afraid of the illness you have? How your children will survive? Whats going to happen to your partner? How long will a bad situation continue? Go ahead cry.

Archaeologists have excavated tear bottles or wineskins that people used to catch and store their own tears. The containers were made of various types of materials—some were of glass, some of day, others of sheep’s skin; the size and shape of course varied. King David a man after God's own heart after his own tear bottle and believed that God would remember all his suffering.

Psalm 56:8 (KJV) put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
He was right.
God remembers every tear you shed.
He not only remembers he will turn every single one of them in to moments of joy, peace and happiness.
So cry as much as you want.
