I'll be honest with you, sometimes I can't sleep. I wake up in the middle of the night, sometimes carrying the burden of the people I counsel and mentor. I hear there stories of pain, the heartache from relationships and the brokenness in their soul. I hear them weep and often times in the middle of the night, I weep for them. It breaks my heart and to be honest with you I think it should. Because I believe it breaks God's heart. I believe God wants our heart to break for lost people. I believe it matters to God and all too often it doesn't matter to us. I guess I am burdened that our hearts don't risk, don't invest and don't care enough to ask the person next to us, 'how are you doing?' Tonight I will watch the news and close with either a Seinfeld re-run or ESPN. But I never want my heart to soften towards those that are hurting.
Because this is what I know to be true...
Truth #3
Our hearts need to break for the things that break our Fathers heart.
Does yours?
