I
will rejoice in Jerusalem, And joy in My people; The voice of weeping shall no
longer be heard in her, Nor the voice of crying. – Isaiah 65.19
I
think that we are all associated with sorrow. We all know what it is like to
shed buckets of tears over friends or family or our own emotional pains and
hurts. Sorrow is a part of life because sin is part of our broken world.
Children are going to get sick. Family and friends are going to die. People we
care about are going to suffer. We are going to hurt and we are going to cry.
It
is just a part of life. And sadly tears of sorrow are not going to go away as
long as we live in this broken world.
But
the day is coming when God will wipe away all tears from our eyes. Weeping will
be turned into joy and the ‘voice of weeping’ will no longer be heard. One day
we are going to see death turned into life and sorrow into joy. Tragedy will be
turned into triumph. Peace will overcome war.
Of
course only Christ can bring this to pass. When He comes He will bring peace.
Sorrow will be vanquished. Heartache will end. And joy will be in God’s people.
