 JESUS wept.

John 11:35


+  +  +

Who+ in the days of HIS+ flesh, when HE+ had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto HIM that was able to save HIM+ from death, and was heard in that HE+ feared .  . . Hebrews 5:7

+  +  +

Once at the grave of Lazarus; once in the Garden of Gethsemane.

 

What made HIM+ cry ? 

DEATH.

JESUS WEPT...





JESUS Wept… 

is written such

when sorrow much at Death prevails,

holding all in gloom-filled tomb;

no end in sight for Sorrow’s Might

when Death destroys a loved one. 

 

 

JESUS Wept… 

Scriptures said, 

when  tears o’r-flowed from family. 

Neighbors came a-weeping,

as Death untamed

laid its Claim for keeping.    

 

Yes, JESUS Wept…

Seeing Death affect the Living,


curse in sway sweeps life away,


destroying all it touches .

 

JESUS Wept… 

but swept aside His+ Veil of Flesh

and earthly fears with groans,

unheard His+ moans

by fleshly, human ears.    

 

Then JESUS  Lifted

… not the stone…

but the Tone

of Command.



There HE+ met the curse head-first: 

    

LAZARUS ! Here ! Outside !

HE+ cried.

This time… with no tears!
