I am grieved by all the evil that is going on in this world.
All the murders, all the wars, all the cruelty, all the famine, all the immorality, all the greed, all the heartlessness.
I am grieved to see Brother in Christ against Brother in Christ. I am grieved to see division in those of us who claim to know Christ. My heart breaks at the thought of innocent children dying because of war, children left father and motherless, children left without a pillow to lay their heads on or arms to hold them in while they weep. Children left without a slice of bread or even a drop of water. Children who never had a chance to smile or to be cherished, but instead were treated with cruelty and whose hearts were broken by evil.

Lord Jesus come now! We need you now more than ever! We long for your justice because the evil one has trampled over your innocent children :(. he has delighted in destroying their hearts and has indulged in burning away their beautiful innocence. Lord come now and heal these broken hearts, we all need you now :(
 
Greetings, unfortunately not everyone who claims to be christian really is, there are apostates. you can know true christians by their fruits because Jesus will place things on their hearts and they will obey. I hope that this was of some help
 
Adrian, I feel as you do. When we keep up with world news, when we see what happens every day to some unfortunate innocent people, it is enough to disgust anyone with even a small amount compassion for their fellow man. The harming of children will always weigh heavy on our hearts, the child's tears will earn our grief, and the adult's actions invoke a deep-seated rage, for we know that laying their hands on a helpless child makes them the scum of the Earth. The way we feel about these things, while painful of itself, is a good thing, for these emotions are what cause us to act, cause us to speak out against the horrors. We are the people who prevent these atrocities from becoming more widespread, we are the ones who will attempt to protect defenseless children against those who believe in abusing them, we are the ones who will see a government overseas murdering and oppressing their own people, and stand up and tell them how sickening and evil what they're doing is.

Embrace your emotions, the disgust, anger, and grief that you and I, as well as most of humanity, share in common. These feelings are vitally important as they are what has the ability to motivate us to end wars, to eliminate hatred, to protect the defenseless innocent. Concentrate on the good you can do, reduce the suffering of those in pain as much as you can, this will help you cope with your grief, and even make you happy. This is what Jesus would have done, and because he isn't here right now, it's up to you to be like Jesus to those who need it. We're all united as the civilization which values human life and liberty, and if we all do our small parts, collectively we will improve this world! You have a bright future, now you can use it to brighten the future of those you are grieving for.
 
Amen adrian! It's anguishing to see that God's Word is not prevalent in this evil world. We the Christians are the hope. But most of us live in our own worlds, only worried about our own lives...

I agree with you, I have been one of those little children, and now cope with it as an adult. And have at times in life, had a heart and passion to be a healing prescence, with words, and demonstrating and teaching strength to my same age friends, and the neighbors children, and those at church.

But now I realize it is a waste. They will go on to live the lives the Lord gave them, and bad and good will happen, and then maybe they will say, OH, I wish I had listened and respected Ms. Ina, because now I need her help.

And when an outside, who has a christlike heart, wants to help and is able, the parents for some reason get angry and paranoid, like you are trying to do bad stuff to their children, rather than just using what God gave to help them. It doesn't make sense. Where I live, many do not know the Lord really. And I, I trust Jesus, but it gets hard, and times of giving up. We are human. We cannot fight every evil and win e
very battle, and life is unfair.

Thank for being strong, and defending and speaking out for what is right and true and honorable and good, and pure.
