Ps. 97 [The Message]

“The mountains melt like wax in the presence of the Lord.” (v. 5)

I always think of that verse when I get emotional about the Lord. When I hear an anointed song such as the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir singing Ps. 34. Another singer who makes me cry is Lauren Daigle. I sense the presence of God in their music. I just start weeping.

To me, it’s emotionally healthy to be sensitive to God like that. I don’t try to hide it. I also get emotional when I think of how good God has been to Patty and me through our family. We just spent a week with everyone in Minnesota at our son’s cabin. I was introducing my family at a picnic just before my granddaughter’s wedding. I got my name out and just lost it. Call me whatever … when it’s important, I show it through my emotions.

Jesus wept. We can weep too.
