Songs from the Heart – Every Cry is Heard

She stepped off the curb, texting as her head bopped in rhythm to the music playing in her ears, oblivious to the car careening from the right.

Across the street, Kara jumped to her feet. She’d been waiting for the next bus when she noticed the young woman. She waved her hands in the air. “Hey, lady! Watch out.”

The young woman kept going still texting, still bee-bopping.

Kara jumped up and down, flailing her arms. “Lady! Listen to me.” She raised her voice as loud as she could.

Others stopped and looked in the direction Kara pointed.

They too yelled.

But the woman couldn’t hear.

Do you ever feel God doesn’t hear you? Why pray? Is He listening?

We’ve all been there. Rough situations come across our path. We get that disturbing diagnosis from the doctor, our spouse says they’re not happy and wants out, our child is being bullied, we lose our job, etc. I could go on and on. No matter what the circumstance, the pain is the same. It’s heart-wrenching. Tough. Inconceivable.

Does God hear our cries?every cry
I believe He does. I can’t always explain why things happen, but God listens.

Jim Brady wrote this song for his sister when she was diagnosed with cancer. She was facing her own gut-wrenching situation. He sang it at a concert Jeff and I attended. Tears ran down my cheeks as I thought of my own brother. Murray fought the fight on his knees. He praised God through it all with his dear wife at his side.

Did God pay attention to our sobs? He did and gave us a peace only He can give. A peace His children can have when they rest in His arms.

He does hear every cry, so reach out to Him. Let’s fall on our knees. Surrender our tears to Him. (Click to tweet)

And let Him wash us with His peace.

What are you going through right now? How can I pray for you?

Every Cry is Heard by Jim Brady
