my heart is aching

over the broken-hearted
over the oppressed
over the fatherless
over the lost...

over a good portion of my friends-- old friends and newly-made friends.

For some reason... I just feel so... uncomfortable. I feel like I need to do something. But I don't know what. I want all the people I met here to know, somehow, someway. I just have this sense of uneasiness weighing me down, and I don't know what to do with it. But then I thought about it and... maybe I'm not supposed to get rid of it. Maybe it's to prevent me from becoming too complacent. We always sing the songs and lift our hands up and close our eyes and pray hard, but what do we do when service is over? We go back to our daily lives and do nothing; we ignore the great commission that has been placed upon us. We start becoming okay with the way things are right now, and we start to accept it.

Wake up. Stop being complacent. Feel this sense of urgency? It's there. It's real. So are you gonna do something about it or just sit there like you always did? ...... It's time for change. It may be little by little, but it's change nonetheless.

If my heart is aching this much over these things... then how much more is His?
