“In A Distance”

Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge

Tears, Tears. We cry, We shed

Sorrow and grief; those things we dread

Laughter and joy; I’ll take it I’m glad

Uplifting, Refreshing. That’s to be had

Many be the effect. Many be the cause

Good or bad; yet like Niagara Falls

All these in a distance, I see. You see

Our lives in a distance encompasses all

Don’t you agree?

I’m so grateful He cares about, washes, and will wash away every tear (see Crystal Bottle). Here are some scriptures that relate:

2 Kings 20:5

Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the Lord.

Psalm 116:8

For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

Psalm 126:5

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Isaiah 25:8

He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.

Isaiah 38:5

Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.

For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
