June 26, 2023:  I Can't Weep Anymore

6/26/2023

"Then David and the people who were with him raised their voices and wept until they had no more strength to weep." (1 Samuel 30:4, ESV)

All of us will experience the pain of a broken heart in this life. There is no getting around it. If you make yourself vulnerable to love, there will come a time when you experience loss or rejection. David and his men experienced loss the day they returned to camp, only to find their wives and children kidnapped and their homes raided. The scripture says they raised their voices and wept until they had no more strength to weep.
    
The power of grief in loss to steal one's strength is incredible. A broken heart has the power to steal strength. It makes one weak and susceptible to sickness, fatigue, and brain fog. It puts one in a highly emotional place where decisions and choices are often made in the flesh and not in the Spirit. That often leads to more regret and pain.
    
Out of their hurt, pain, and bitterness, David's men were ready to stone him. Amid his pain and stress, David made a wise choice. He strengthened himself in the Lord. The Hebrew word means to take courage or to strengthen one's self. It is often used in association with battle. David relied on the strength of the Lord when he had exhausted his strength. He sought God amid his pain. He prayed to God for help. He relied on what he knew; he worshiped! May we remember to strengthen ourselves in the Lord on the day of our pain.
