I Cried My Last Tear Yesterday

My brother Charlie was taken to the hospital yesterday with what they are calling a “heart event” He is undergoing an arteriogram as I write this. Charlie had heart bypass surgery almost 6 years ago. An RN told us yesterday that those veins they take out of your leg are not good but for a few years at most. So we wait to hear the outcome and learn what comes next.

 

I wrote about Charlie’s return to the Lord some time back. That is especially comforting as we are now faced with a “heart event”. I don’t know what folks do who don’t know the Lord. How do they handle “events” in their lives? I am not where I want to be in my walk with the Father, but I cherish the trust I have in Him to do what is right in every situation and circumstance. I don’t fret outcomes like I used to. I know Abba is in complete control and that is good.

 

I ran across the lyrics of a song that are so powerful along this line and I want to share it with you.

 

I had enough heartache and enough headaches
I've had so many ups and downs
Don't know how much more I can take
See I decided that I CRIED MY LAST TEAR YESTERDAY

Either I'm going to trust You, or I may as well walk away,
"Cause stressing don't make it better
Don't make it better, no way
See I decided that I CRIED MY LAST TEAR YESTERDAY
Yesterday,

I decided to put my trust in You
Yesterday, I realized that You will bring me through
There ain't  nothing to hard for my God, no
Any problems that I have
He's greater than them all, so
I decided that I CRIED MY LAST TEAR YESTERDAY.

P.S. I just learned that this song is performed by Mary Mary...Not a double type, that is the name of the performer/performers.
