DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

This sermon emphasizes the contrast between worldly joy and the depth of
spiritual connection with God through weeping and humility. It
highlights the importance of genuine emotional expression in the church
community and the profound experience of being close to the heart of
God, as seen in a powerful Friday night prayer meeting where God's
presence brought humility and brokenness.

CONTENT

You know, we're overboard on laughter and happiness. There's an old
saying in the world, laugh and the world laughs with you. I change it.

I say, laugh and the church laughs with you, but weep and you weep
alone. You go so near to the heart of God. We sang it on Friday.

We had a marvelous Friday night prayer meeting. I wouldn't have taken
that Friday night meeting for $10,000. God came and we were broken and
humiliated before him.
