The infamous shortest verse in scripture, John 11:35, hauntingly reads "Jesus wept". Behind those two words, however, lies a powerful truth.  Just as Jesus cried alongside of the mourners of his deceased friend Lazarus, Jesus proves himself to be a master of empathy as He also cries alongside of us when we are sad. Feeling melancholy? Remember, like it says in Psalm 34:18, God is close to those who are brokenhearted. He feels our pain; he seeks to give us relief. As it says in 2 Corinthians 1:3 , Jesus is the "God of all comfort". Pray to Him today if you're feeling sad inside, He hears you! :)
