\u201cIs it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow, which is done unto me, wherewith the Lord hath afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.\u201d (Lam. 1:12<\/a>).<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes as I sit at the Lord\u2019s Supper, I have to ask myself, \u201cWhat is the matter with me? How can I sit here and contemplate the passion of the Savior and not be melted in tears?\u201d<\/p>\n

An unknown poet faced the same questions; he wrote: \u201cAm I a stone, and not a man, that I can stand,\/ O Christ, beneath Thy cross,\/ and number, drop by drop,\/ Thy blood\u2019s slow loss,\/ and yet not weep?\/ Not so the sun and moon,\/ which hid their faces in a midnight sky,\/ while earth convulsed and groaned \u2014yet only I \/ can look, unmoved, unwooed.\/ Great God, I must not be,\/ or I shall know the anger that He bore.\/ Oh Lord, I pray Thee, turn and look once more,\/ and smite this rock, my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another wrote in a similar spirit: \u201cO wonder to myself I am,\/ Thou loving, bleeding, dying Lamb,\/ that I can scan the mystery o\u2019er,\/ and not be moved to love Thee more.\u201d<\/p>\n

I admire those sensitive souls who are so moved by the sufferings of the dying Redeemer that they break down and cry. I think of my Christian barber, Ralph Ruocco. Often as he stood over me, he would talk about the agonies which the Savior endured. Then with his tears falling on the cloth cover, he would say, \u201cI don\u2019t know why He was willing to die for me. I am such a wretch. Yet He bore the penalty of my sins in His body on the Cross.\u201d<\/p>\n

I think of the sinful woman who washed the Savior\u2019s feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair, and kissed His feet, and anointed them with ointment (Lu. 7:38). Although living on the other side of the Cross, she was more attuned emotionally than I with all my superior knowledge and privilege.<\/p>\n

Why am I such a block of ice? Is it that I have been brought up in a culture where it is considered unmanly to weep? If so, then I wish I had never known that culture. It is not a disgrace to weep in the shadow of Calvary; the disgrace lies in not weeping.<\/p>\n

Borrowing Jeremiah\u2019s words, I must henceforth pray, \u201cOh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night\u201d (Jer. 9:1<\/a>); weep, that is, over the sufferings and death which my sins brought on the sinless Savior. And I take as my own the immortal words of Isaac Watts: Well might I hide my blushing face, while His dear cross appears; Dissolve my heart in thankfulness, and melt my eyes to tears.<\/i><\/p>\n

Lord, deliver me from the curse of a dry-eyed Christianity!<\/p>\n

\u00bbIst es noch nicht zu euch gedrungen, alle, die ihr des Weges zieht? Schaut und\u00a0seht, ob es einen Schmerz gibt wie meinen Schmerz, der mir angetan worden ist,\u00a0mit dem mich der Herr betr\u00fcbt hat am Tag seiner Zornglut.\u00ab\u00a0Klagelieder 1,12<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Manchmal, wenn ich beim Mahl des Herrn sitze, muss ich mich fragen: \u00bbWas\u00a0ist los mit mir? Wie kann ich hier sitzen und \u00fcber die Leiden des Erl\u00f6sers\u00a0nachdenken, ohne in Tr\u00e4nen auszubrechen?\u00ab<\/p>\n

Ein unbekannter Dichter stellte sich die gleichen Fragen; er schrieb: \u00bbBin ich ein\u00a0Stein und nicht ein Mensch, dass ich stehen kann, o Christus, unter Deinem Kreuz,\u00a0und Tropfen f\u00fcr Tropfen z\u00e4hlen kann, Dein langsames Blutvergie\u00dfen, und dabei nicht\u00a0weinen muss? Nicht so Sonne und Mond, die ihr Angesicht in einem Mitternachtshimmel\u00a0verbargen, w\u00e4hrend die Erde sich wand und st\u00f6hnte \u2013 doch ich allein kann\u00a0zusehen unber\u00fchrt, unbetroffen. Gro\u00dfer Gott, ich darf es nicht sein, sonst werde ich\u00a0den Zorn erfahren, den Er getragen hat. O Herr, ich bitte Dich, wende Dich noch
\neinmal zu mir und sieh mich an und schlage diesen Felsen, mein Herz.\u00ab<\/p>\n

Ein anderer schrieb in \u00e4hnlichem Sinn: \u00bbWas f\u00fcr ein Wunder bin ich mir selbst,\u00a0Du liebendes, blutendes, sterbendes Lamm, dass ich \u00fcber das Geheimnis nachdenken\u00a0kann, ohne getrieben zu werden, Dich mehr zu lieben.\u00ab<\/p>\n

Ich hege gro\u00dfen Respekt f\u00fcr jene empfindsamen Seelen, die von den Leiden des\u00a0sterbenden Erl\u00f6sers so bewegt werden, dass sie in Tr\u00e4nen ausbrechen. Ich denke an\u00a0meinen christlichen Friseur, Ralph Ruocco. Oft schon, als er beim Haareschneiden\u00a0hinter mir stand, hat er \u00fcber die Leiden\u00a0gesprochen, die der Herr ertragen hat. Dann\u00a0sagte er oft, w\u00e4hrend seine Tr\u00e4nen auf den Umhang fielen: \u00bbIch wei\u00df nicht, warum\u00a0Er bereit war, f\u00fcr mich zu sterben. Ich bin so ein elender Schuft. Und doch hat Er die\u00a0Strafe f\u00fcr meine S\u00fcnden an Seinem Leib am Kreuz getragen.\u00ab<\/p>\n

Ich denke an die S\u00fcnderin, welche die F\u00fc\u00dfe des Herrn mit ihren Tr\u00e4nen gewaschen\u00a0und mit ihren Haaren getrocknet hat, sie dann k\u00fcsste und mit Salbe salbte\u00a0(siehe Lukas 7,38). Obwohl sie noch jenseits von Golgatha lebte, war sie mit ihren\u00a0Gef\u00fchlen weit mehr auf den Herrn eingestimmt als ich mit meinem \u00fcberlegenen\u00a0Wissen und all meinen Vorrechten.<\/p>\n

Warum bin ich ein solcher Eisblock? Vielleicht, weil ich in einer Kultur aufgewachsen\u00a0bin, wo Weinen als unm\u00e4nnlich gilt? Wenn es so sein sollte,\u00a0dann w\u00fcnschte\u00a0ich, diese Kultur nie gekannt zu haben. Es ist keine Schande, im Schatten von Golgatha\u00a0zu weinen; die Schande liegt vielmehr darin, nicht weinen zu k\u00f6nnen.<\/p>\n

Mit den Worten Jeremias muss ich fortan beten: \u00bbO dass mein Haupt Wasser w\u00e4re\u00a0und mein Auge ein Tr\u00e4nenquell, so wollte ich Tag und Nacht weinen\u00ab (Jeremia 9,1), d.h.\u00a0weinen \u00fcber die Leiden und den Tod, die meine S\u00fcnden \u00fcber den s\u00fcndlosen Erl\u00f6ser\u00a0gebracht haben. Und ich mache mir die unsterblichen Worte von Isaac Watts zu Eigen:<\/p>\n

\u00bbIch tue gut daran, mein err\u00f6tendes Gesicht zu verbergen,
\nWenn Sein teures Kreuz vor meinem Auge erscheint;
\nUnd lasse mein Herz vor Dankbarkeit \u00fcberflie\u00dfen
\nUnd meine Augen in Tr\u00e4nen zerflie\u00dfen.\u00ab<\/p>\n

Herr, bewahre mich vor dem Fluch eines tr\u00e4nenlosen Christentums!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
