#179: Grace Over Fear: When you feel embarrassed by your tears

Have you ever felt embarrassed by your tears? What is going on when we do not like to cry in front of others? Listen in.  If Jesus wept, if Jesus calls us to suffer with those who suffer and weep with those who weep, why do we fear crying so much? The reality is that as much as we hate crying, most of us cry relatively often. As image-bearers, we resonate deeply with Jesus as the Man of Sorrows. We cry because we feel so deeply that words cannot convey our grief and heartbreak. In today's episode, you'll receive practical strategies and anchoring truths for remembering grace overcomes fear and that you do not need to be embarrassed by your tears. You'll learn: what we do when we cry in front of others, why many of us are so averse to crying, how our enemy leverages our fear of this vulnerability, and what God says.
