Tears are God's gift to help drain the pain of deep grief and sorrow.

"Suggested prayer:


"Dear God, help me to be connected to and honest
with all my emotions and learn to express them in healthy,
constructive ways.

And help me to learn to grieve and mourn my losses
and not be afraid to cry when I am truly sad.

Thank you for the gift of tears as well as the gift of laughter.

Help me to realize that both are equally important and healthy.

Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer.

Gratefully in Jesus' name, amen."

(Matthew 5:4).
