The Divine Gift of Tears

By Lori Lines

Tears are not just drops of water; they are the sacred language of the soul, speaking when words fall silent. They are the shimmering messengers of truth, carrying the weight of sorrow, the relief of surrender, and the quiet joy of remembrance.

Each tear holds the codes of something deeply felt—an unspoken prayer, a whispered goodbye, an unguarded moment of grace. They cleanse more than the eyes; they wash away the burdens we dare not name, softening the sharp edges of pain and dissolving the barriers between our hearts and the divine.

Tears remind us that we are alive, that we have loved, that we have risked our hearts in a world both beautiful and fleeting. They are proof that something deep within us still believes in the sacredness of feeling, in the wisdom of release, in the power of vulnerability.

So let them fall. Let them baptize your spirit. Let them trace the path of healing down your cheeks. For in their silent descent, they are not a sign of weakness, but a testament to the depth of your soul’s journey.

In love and truth,
