The diamonds of Heaven!
“You keep track of all my sorrows.
You have collected all my tears in Your bottle.
You have recorded each one in Your book.” Psalm 56:8
“Behold, he is praying!” Acts 9:11
Prayers are instantly noticed in heaven. The moment Saul began to pray, the Lord heard him. Here is comfort for the distressed but praying soul. Oftentimes a poor broken-hearted one bends his knee, but can only utter his wailing in the language of sighs and tears; yet that groan has made all the harps of heaven thrill with music; that tear has been caught by God and treasured in the lachrymatory of Heaven. “You have collected all my tears in Your bottle.” This implies that they are caught as they flow!
The suppliant, who groans out his words, will be well understood by the Most High God. He may only look up with misty eye; but prayer is the falling of a tear! Tears are the diamonds of Heaven! Sighs are a part of the music of Jehovah’s court, and are numbered with the most sublime strains which reach the majesty on high!
Do not think that your prayers, however weak or trembling, will be unregarded. Our God not only hears prayers, but also loves to hear them. “He does not forget the cry of the humble.”
True, He does not regard proud looks and lofty words.
He no concern for the pomp and pageantry of kings.
He does not listen not to the swell of martial music.
He does not regard the triumph and pride of man.
But wherever there is a contrite heart full with sorrow, or a lip quivering with agony, or a deep groan, or a penitential sigh葉he heart of Jehovah is open! He marks that prayer down in the registry of His memory! He puts our prayers, like rose leaves傭etween the pages of His book of remembrance, and when the volume is opened at last there shall be a precious fragrance springing up therefrom!

Steve great post. On bended knees is where our greatest battles are fought and won. When you can’t stand anymore just fall on your knees and pray. The Lord will somehow make a way. He is The Waymaker. Blessings and Peace. Claudia
Amen! Claudia…Thank you so much for coming over here to visit and leave such an encouraging comment. 😀
Steve we all need encouragement on one level or another. As children of God that is our commitment. Have a blessed week.
Amen. God bless you too. 😀
Hey, Steve! I just wanted to stop by and personally encourage you, today. I mean, even after your post was an encouragement to me, I still want to encourage you.
I am not writing too much right now because of so many other things going on. However, so many of you other guys keep putting material out there for the world to see, and I truly believe it’s worth the effort.
Don’t grow weary in doing good! Be safe and stay well, my brother. God bless.
Anthony…I have no idea how to respond to this amazing encouragement, i’m speechless. All i can say is a huge thank you! 😀
