Verse
Psalm 56:8 NLT

You keep track of all my sorrows.
You have collected all my tears in your bottle.
You have recorded each one in your book.

Quote

The first man
[Adam] sinned
and grieved only
for himself,
but the second
Man [Jesus]
knew no sin
yet grieved for us
so that we would
not grieve forever.

Matthew 5:4 NIV
Verse
REVELATION 7:15-17 NIV

Therefore, “they are before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence. ‘Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat down on them,’ nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; ‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’ ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’”
