Tears can imply many things. There are tears (a split or rip), tears of sorrow (weeping), and tares that refer to weeds. I have experienced all three in my life. Some have to be healed, some endured, and some eradicated. Only with God's help can any of these processes be accomplished. This is my true story of how God has saved my life. I pray it will inspire and encourage others. Nothing is impossible with God!
