No matter how hard we try, we will all fall short - eventually we'll blow it. It is human nature. However, we must never forget that we are all made new by the blood given by the Son of God. The Tears of God as symbolized by the rain drops shows God's sorrow as He sacrificed His Son and man as he is able to come to the cross and be forgiven and made a new man. Imagine the thought of knowingly sending your children into a horrific and agonizing death to atone for the sins of others. It is for us an inconceivable idea. I simply cannot imagine the anguish of the Father. The love of God is truly the love that surpasses all understanding.
