Chin Up, Hands Up

"Woman, why are you crying?"  This woman thought that the ultimate love and hope in her life was extinguished.  But it was alive in Jesus Christ.  Why are you crying?  There is a Savior and Lord who loves you more than you can imagine, and knows you better than you know yourself.  Through him, we have the forgiveness of sins and a hope for the future.  Thanks be to God!
Do not grieve for your past sins, but lament, repent, embrace God's lavish mercy and grace, and live in the joy of his forgiveness and righteousness!
