Do you see His tears?

Jesus is weeping with us.

Do you see His tears?

He's weeping with our nation

For every childhood that's been taken

For every home that is now vacant 

Because of color

Because of hatred

Jesus is weeping with us.

Do you see His tears?

With the boyfriend who lost their boyfriend

With the wife left to raise a family alone

With the brother who's brother was slaughtered

With the friend who's squad just got smaller

Jesus is weeping with us.

Do you see His tears?

He is weeping with us ALL

Last night we laid on the couch in disbelief, well into the morning hours. When we woke up today, the news was still tragic and somber and shocking to say the least. All I could muster as I read through so many posts on fb regarding this weeks tragedies was this poem. Because #blacklivesmatter and Jesus modeled this for us.
