Who Hears Your Cry?

I have been blessed all of my life with good sleep. The only time I was awakened was when my children were babies and their cry would easily shake me out of sleep. But, my ear was open to their cry.

In the very same way, God sees our needs and hears our cry. He sees the hurts we have in our secret place. He knows all, loves us and wants to heal our hurts.

Just as the Israelites were slaves in Egypt and cried out to God, He will deliver us from our prison when we cry out to Him.

“…Then the children of Israel groaned because of bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of their bondage. So God heard their groaning…and God acknowledged them. ‘So I [God] have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land…’”  Exodus 2:23-25, 3:8a  NKJV
