"God longs to be your empathetic witness, to attend to the wounds within you, to reconnect with you, to help you return to yourself. He has—quite literally—designed you to be known." @chuckdegroat

Trauma recovery needs tears. 
Tears honor the victim and the awfulness of what occurred.  
Tears are a way of remembering. 
Tears honor who or what has been lost; they are worth crying over.

For those of us who spent years resolutely steering our lives from one ditch to another, one of the most practical ways to surrender to Christ is to pick up the phone and tell the truth to another Christian. God always rewards that simple act of humility...@NateLarkin
