Gate Of Tears: True Prayer

We think we control our lives and that our successes, and failures, are within our control. They aren't. We don't control anything in our lives, everything comes from above, but we haven't realized that yet.

As such, we exert a tremendous amount of energy and effort trying to make things work, trying to fix things, trying to control things, trying to steer things in the direction we want them to go. However, all our efforts are failing because everywhere around us, things are falling apart.

When you get to a point where you realize that you can't do it, and that no one and nothing can help you but The Creator, then cry out to Him, like a little child, helpless and in desperate need.

Cry out to The One True God, The Infinite God, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Ask Him for help you He'll help you.

This breaking point is called the Gate of Tears and you HAVE to reach it. It's when you relinquish control of your life and you give God control. You acknowledge that God is the only one who can help you, God is the only one who can control your life.

The truth is that God is the only one who controls our lives, but we don't know that. We think we control our lives, but we don't. So we live in a state of falsehood, we live in a lie.

When you cry for God to help you, your cry expresses the truth, that God is the only one who can help you because in truth, God is the only one who controls your life.

Cry out for help and God will help you.
