A Poem God Laid on My Heart,
after the tragic loss of a nephew by suicide.
When Can Men Cry
When they are young men, they don't shed a tear
For their father's punishment may become more severe.
We see broken hearts to broken homes with the kids in tears
But more and more divorce becomes clear.
We should shed a tear
for our children's financial future
But our desire for sacrifice is unclear.
When will it be enough to shed a tear?
When it's too late for most this must is clear.
God shares a tear for the unborn child who has no voice
for mankind has made them a choice.
Lies from the top leaders less God for our children this is pretty clear
In a Nation where a rejection of God is not something we fear.
Lost soldiers all but forgotten in enemy lands should bring a tear
If freedom is what you hold dear.
You would think all of this would be enough to make it clear
When men should shed a tear.
Our hearts stay hardened that much is clear
Because we hold our own “Self” so dear.
Man will someday shed a tear, but will it be too late
For loved ones and friends for whom we forsake.
I know God will shed a tear for those whom we forsake
For those are the lost souls that most likely will be cast into a lake.
Jesus Christ may have shed a tear
But he conquered death for all our sins down here.
So, my message is clear with all I have written
“Be a Man Shed a Tear for your Loved Ones and Friends.
The end of Satan’s time is near
Share Jesus Christ and the Tears of Joy will become clear.
