Know this: The LORD is near, very near - and He hears your silent cry. He knows your desperation, your loneliness. He sees your tears, your heartbreak, your disappointment, your pain.
The Christ made with human hands -- the Christ made of stone, of wood, or of plaster, that Christ is not real. That Christ cannot help you.
The Christ, the Son of God, the Christ who is Very God of Very God, He is not only real but near, very near. He can and will help you. He weeps with your weeping - not because He is powerless, but because He knows and understands your situation, your circumstance, your anxieties and your fear -- better than you do. He understands you better than you understand yourself. So, learn to listen. Listen now. Listen for God's voice -- hear the language - and understand
