Things that break my heart:

-the thought of someone who has tasted the good yet falls back, and settles for the world.
-the thought of someone who knows the truth, yet decides to believe in lies instead.
-the thought of someone trying to know God when cease striving is all he needs.
-the thought of my campus, and realizing that there are still so many who do not to know Him.
-the thought of China and the Chinese people
-the thought of non-christian friends in my classes
-the thought of North America
-the thought of ACF
-the thought of families.

-the thought of how God looks at this world...

...and how it breaks His heart....

Yet, I also thought the other day, how much the Lord loves us. This is love: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. This is love: that while we still break His heart, God sees in us--His son--and the blood that not only makes us clean, but sets us free so that we too can live a new life.
