I once heard a pastor say "your tears don't move God, but your faith does". It got me thinking- so all those times i cried and prayed, God wasn't moved or what? But now i'm guessing the pastor was just trying to emphasize that Christians should pray with confidence and faith instead of crying.
What do you think? is God moved by the tears of his Children? he loves us right, so why wouldn't he be moved?
I was reading a devotional this morning and the writer, drawing his conclusion from John 11:35, explained that Jesus wept because He saw Lazarus' sisters crying, and the writer went further to say "if you want to get God's attention, try tears"
Now i have two contradictory statements here. please which do you agree with, which is right, or are they both correct in some ways? I look forward to your responses.
Thank you.
