I wanted to know how (and in what ways have you) has people in this forum identified with the heart of Jesus Christ. To know his pain, to know his hurts, to know when he cries.

I don't know about anyone here, but I know that I have cried many times because the people that he loves and died for has not accepted him. That our Lord hurts so much seeing all his creation suffer and will suffer for the rest of eternity. I cannot imagine what around Lord goes through each day that his children rebell against him.

I have spent times in tears because I could not submit to the Lord. Because I know that I was holding back on him. To know how much I had hurt him and fustrated him, but praise be to God that he is a patient God who is quick to forgive and slow to anger.

My friend who I've known for over 15+ years. She doesn't know Jesus. My heart aches because of the lifestyle that she has. I love her dearly, but I know that Jesus loves her so much more than I do. I can't imagine how he must feel. The thing is that just thinking about her stresses me out sometimes, but the Lord has to do this about all the people he created. He's not mourning for just one person, but so many. Her sins were the things our Lord has died for. Why must they cruxcify him again because they keep on sinning.

Before becoming a Christian, I never thought I would care about people whom I don't know. Never before have I cried when I heard some stranger died and was found in the river. She didn't know Jesus Christ. We've losted her. We will not see her in heaven. She was so young, so young. Very close to my age, and now she's gone and forever dead. :cry:

I must praise the Lord for his kindness and goodness to us all. I thank you Jesus that you love me and continue to touch my heart. I thank you for the work that you have chosen sinners like us to do, that you entrusted sinners like us for your ministry. Thank you Jesus that you saw us of good worth when we are just filty rags. Thank you Jesus for not ever letting us go.

To you be glory, honor, and praise. We bow down and we lay our crowns Lord. For only you are worthy of wearing such honor. :bow:
AMEN!
