The Tears Of Jesus

Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 15, 2023

Jesus shed tears for many reasons. We, as Christians, should shed tears for the same. Is our heart sensitive to the things of God?

Chemists say that tears are a combination of sodium chloride, phosphate of lime, mucus, and water. The Bible reveals that tears are the expressions of a broken heart.
