But this is what carrying love feels like, how it longs to be poured where the love is no longer present…
So instead I pour it excessively over my other loves…
The tears fill up inside of my skin and I hope it doesn’t spill out onto the surface today, there are times that grief is better known alone…
It is time to stir and add all that must be added to complete it…
I take the time to lovingly make the “tear soup” as we have come to affectionately call it…
Lamentations 2:18-19 "Their heart cried out to the Lord, O wall of the daughter of zion, let your tears run down like a river day and night, give yourself no relief, let your eyes have no rest. Arise, cry aloud in the night, at the beginning of the night watches. Pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to Him for the life of your little ones."
Psalm 126:4-6 "RESTORE OUR FORTUNES, O Lord,
like streams in the Negev. Those who sow in tears will reap with SONGS
OF JOY. He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow will return with
SONGS OF JOY, carrying sheaves with him."
