Messiah in Tears

Wednesday, April 9, 2025

The Hebrew word Immanuel or in English Immanuel is actually a sentence: Im means 'with,' anu means 'us,' and El means 'God'. God is with us. Messiah's name is not just a name, it's a Hebrew sentence. Whatever He did in His life, He was 'God is with us' doing it. In John 11 it says, "Messiah, wept." Messiah in sorrow and tears was Immanuel in sorrow and tears. That spells out a message- "God is with us in sorrow and tears." Having God in your life doesn't mean you'll be exempt from sorrow and tears, but it means you'll never be alone. God will be with you in all things, at all times. Even when you feel far from His presence, His presence is never far. For God is with you in your sorrows and tears. Even in your deepest pain, He will be just as much there as He ever was, and even more so. You will find that if you look, He is there as Immanuel weeping with you and loving you, just beyond your tears.
