WEEP FOR ME!
SNIPPET
“While Christianity was able to agree with pagan writers that inordinate attachment to earthly goods can lead to unnecessary pain and grief, it also taught that the answer to this was not to love things less but to love God more than anything else. Only when our greatest love is God, a love that we cannot lose even in death, can we face all things with peace. Grief was not to be eliminated but seasoned and buoyed up with love and hope.” Tim Keller Walking with God Thru Pain and Suffering
SCRIPTURE
O Lord, come back to us!
How long will you delay?
Take pity on your servants!
Satisfy us each morning with your unfailing love,
so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.
Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery!
Replace the evil years with good.
Let us, your servants, see you work again;
let our children see your glory.
And may the Lord our God show us his approval
and make our efforts successful.
Yes, make our efforts successful! Psalms 90:13-17 NLT
SONG
WEEP WITH ME REND COLLECTIVE
Weep with me
Lord will you weep with me
I don’t need answers all I need
is to know you care for me
Hear my plea
are you even listening
Lord I will wrestle with your heart
but I won’t let you go
you know I believe
help my unbelief
Yet I will praise you
Yet I will sing of your name
here in the shadows
i’ll light up an offering of praise
what was true in the light is still true in the dark
You’re good and You’re kind and You care for this heart.
Lord I believe You weep with me
Part the seas Lord make a way for me
here in the midst of my lament
I have faith yes I still believe
that You love me
Your plans are to prosper me
You’re working everything for good
even when I can’t see it
You know I believe
help my unbelief
yet I will praise You
Yet I will sing of your name
here in the shadows
i’ll lift up an offering of praise
what was true in the light is still true in the dark
You’re good and You’re kind and You care for this heart.
Lord I believe You weep with me
turn my lament into a love song
transform me and turn my lament into an anthem
I need it now I need it now
turn my lament into a love song
o raise it up o raise it up
turn my lament into an anthem
yet I will praise You
Yet I will sing of your name
here in the shadows
i’ll light up an offering of praise
what was true in the light is still true in the dark
You’re good and You’re kind and You care for this heart.
Lord I believe You weep with me
SENTENCE PRAYER
Praise to the God who weeps with men
Praise to the God who came to weep
Praise to the God who catches each tear in his infinite hand
Praise be the God, who give and takes away!
I believe free my from my doubt
Amen! REM
