He Knows Your Cry
The other day my husband and I were meeting with a couple in our living room and we had the doors open so we could hear the kids outside. As we were talking we heard a certain cry (or yell) and we knew it was our 8 year old. My hubby got up to go check on him. He was fine. The young man that was with us said, “Itʼs funny how he knew that that was your sons voice without looking.” I said, “Oh I could tell it was my son also because of how he sounded.”
It made me think of how our Heavenly Father hears our cries and knows our voice because we are His child.
Romans 8
4 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
It reminds me of this song.
It comes from this story in the Bible in
Mark chapter 4.
35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.
36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
(They cried out to Him)
39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
(And He answered and made it all better)
40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
(And Iʼm always amazed when He answers or provides or works it all out)
Donʼt be afraid to call on the Lord. Even if all you can do is cry softly, the Holy Spirit hears the groaning of your heart.
Romans 8
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
