Jesus Wept

"When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled."  John 11:33

There are a lot of things I don't understand in life.  Like why the terrible events of Colorado happened.  How a person could be so twisted.  How they could make that horrible irreversible decision.

There are also 'smaller' things I don't understand.  Why certain dreams seem take so long to come true.  Why some days seem to have a gloomy haze around them.

But one thing I do know is that Jesus cares.  The story above mentions again a few verses later, "Jesus, once more deeply moved came to the tomb."

It's comforting to know that God cares about our emotions and our hearts. That He has a heart that feels emotions too.

And that best of all He has a plan to rescue us from a world where our hearts feel sadness and loss and restore us to one where they dance with joy instead.
