Summary

Pastor Safrit walks through the analogy of a mother's love to illustrate God's understanding of our pain, referencing the emotional connection between a mother and her child. He emphasizes that just as a mother instinctively knows her child's hurt, God knows our tears and understands our struggles even when others do not. The main point is that we can find comfort in God's awareness and care during our difficult times.

  1. She's crying. It reminds me of a child who comes to his mom.

    As the child comes to his mom because something happened, maybe they fell off of a swing set and they hurt their head or they fell and broke their arm and they come to the mom and they're crying, no one else in the world knows what they're saying.

    But in that moment, the mother knows exactly what's going on.

    The mother's like, yes, I know you're hurt. Yes, I know your head is hurting. What can we do? Get the ice. James, go call 911, whatever's going on. They know what's going on.

    They're there to take care of it, even though someone else doesn't. And God is saying, when you come to me in tears, when no one else knows what's going on, when no one else can understand what you're saying, I know what you're saying.
