Emotions aren't signs of weakness but gifts from God that allow us to navigate life authentically and connect with others in their suffering. Jesus demonstrates this truth in John 11 when he weeps with Mary before raising Lazarus, showing that true strength includes emotional vulnerability.
• Many men mistakenly believe withholding emotion equals strength
• Jesus, the strongest man who ever lived, openly wept (John 11:35)
• Ecclesiastes 3 teaches there is a season for every emotion
• People who can't cry when appropriate often can't fully experience joy either
• Being "strong" doesn't mean emotional suppression but appropriate expression
• Jesus prioritized emotional presence before solving problems
• Sometimes ministry is simply being present and weeping with others
• God is "eternally present" with us in every situation
• Men are challenged to be "strong enough to weep with those who weep"
