Isaiah 54 "Although this chapter is primarily intended to express Zion's joy over redemption, it has also a very personal, long-neglected, and often overlooked message for women - the lonely, the disappointed, the childless, the widow. It has all the glorious confidence and assurance, the incentive and understanding, for which feminine hearts have longed throughout the ages! Every woman who will read it every week for a year with receptive heart and mind will find herself not only spiritually prepared for her own childessness or widowhood, should it come, but also supplied with rich treasure with which to address the similar needs of countless other aching hearts to whom the Holy Spirit is here speaking." [The Amplified Bible]

Have you ever be someone who's been hurt for so many times that you have made yourself a promise: not to cry anymore? Or maybe you've been there, done that. All you're facing now is this new phenomena where, without you want it, or without you realize it, a blunt tear just fall down. You might say it: without permission. And there you are, stumped in surprise, coz you've convinced yourself that you're tough and hard, when the truth is... You just happen to have a fragile and wounded heart.

Regardless to above's metaphor ... Human are meant to cry. Women are designed to shed tears. She might be a strong and courageous female, a warrior, a mighty queen, a mother, a daughter, a princess, a grandmother, a maid, a widow, a whore, a slut, or a lover. The tears of a woman are not meant to be mocked, they are not created to be misjudged, to be considered as a weapon, or a masquerade. Too many women give 'tears' a bad name. They who did that, has too many scars in their heart, incurable ones.

It happened to me. I shed a tear without even knowing that I am. When I finally realized it, I was shocked, after all these times I thought I'm tough, I thought I've built a wall that no substance can ever wreck it down. I was wrong. It was so powerful, that it goes through without ...

...

it goes through, coz it knows that's what i need, it knows who i am.
