Best Answer

An icon is not just a simple representation of the saint, it is intimately linked with the person which it depicts. In real life those saints often prayed with tears for the sins of all men. When an icon cries it shows that the saint is present in this world and that he feels our prayers and our sufferings. Ultimately, what makes an icon cry is the power of God. He doesn't leave man alone in the face of sufferings. He helps and comforts man in this world with signs from the other world under the form of tears on the icons.
