The fog along the IH35 corridor this morning was appropriately symbolic of how so many must feel after yesterday's tragedy at Fort Hood. Cautious navigation through this story will take time before we reach the destination that explains to us how one man can cause such pain and anger to so many others.
As I drove into San Antonio listening to WOAI report more stories surrounding this terrible event my thoughts naturally turned towards God.
The bible describes many of God's emotions, love, anger and even jealousy. The New Testament verse, "Jesus wept.", also tells us of the emotions of our Savior. But I wonder, does God cry?
When events like what happened yesterday at Fort Hood bring such pain to us, does God feel that same anguish? When man, God's children, stray so far away from good that he commits murder, does God grieve over the loss of human life? Does God agonize over the one who committed these life-shattering acts? Our sadness and grief will cultivate many tears. Will God cry?
Revelation(21:4), promises, "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." We can have comfort through God's words, but today who comforts God?
I believe that God is crying today. I believe that each time a tragedy like yesterday's happens, God looks down upon His creation and cries. I believe that each time a person chooses to ignore God, to turn his back on the gift of salvation, and dies to an eternity of Hell, God cries. I wonder, who wipes the tears from the face of God?
