No More Heart of Stone

Lately, I’ve been thinking about how much I want to love like Jesus. To fully feel and just be able to love so deeply. Whenever I see tears run down someone’s face I see the ability to release an emotion like love, anger, disappointment or sadness. As a child, I was told not to let people see me cry. That stuck. Over times in my life, there are moments when I should’ve cried, but I couldn’t. the tears would come, but they would come much later.

I read recently in an article that people who don’t cry are less likely to be empathetic with others , and that not crying is usually caused by some sort of trauma. So recently I began to declare Ezekiel 4:11 through 18 over my life God says I will remove your heart of stone and replace it with a heart of flesh. God‘s word is true , I see him removing old thought patterns and replacing them with his truth. Recently we went to see a movie based on a true story and at the end I was sobbing. Haha! it was actually so refreshing to be able to cry! Proof that we are not destined to be who we’ve always been. Seek God and listen to his words and watch him turn your heart of stone into a heart of flesh.
