There are times when there are no words to explain your pain. No vocabulary to use that adequately describes the anguish.

Yet, the Holy Spirit groans inwardly on our behalf the much needed prayer.

It is astounding to me to remember Christ is day and night uttering intercession for us as we travail the trials. His eye is upon us and praying for our strength to return so we may stand up once again.

Our religious formulas can be left unsaid because tears are most effective flowing from the honest heart.

One does not have to pray long. Pray strong. Pray lovely. Only pray honestly.

And when one cannot form any words due to a sea of overwhelming grief…..tears alone will ring the doorbell of Heaven.
