There was once a time when I got very uncomfortable seeing people cry in church. It's not that I am cold-hearted, I just don't cry much. If I cry, it's a BIG deal. Maybe that's why some of my friends call me The Tin Man. Not that I'm proud of that. I just tell them I'm crying on the inside. I couldn't even cry at a Beth Moore conference when everyone around me was boo-hooing. I tried though. For real.
This past week at TrueNorth Church, the message was about "Change". The challenge was for people to expose themselves to God so they could experience a radical change from the inside out that only God can accomplish. People were moved during the response time. There was a genuine desire for life change. My heart went out to those who are broken and desperate. There were tears...lots of them. And I was not uncomfortable because I was crying on the inside.
