I weep...

I look around this fallen world and I weep.

I see the millions that have access to the Word of God but, either through ignorance, deception, or disdain choose not to accept Jesus as their savior and I weep.

There are millions enslaved by false and blasphemous religions. They believe that their way is the right way but they have deceived. For them, I weep.

There are millions in lifestyles contrary to the Word of God. They believe that God made them that way. For them, I weep.

There are millions of children that are not being taught the Word of God by their parents. For them, I weep.

There are millions of athiests that don't believe because believing would mean that they would have to admit that we cannot do it all by ourselves and there are millions of agnostics that doubt for the same reason. For them, I weep.

I do n ot judge these people for many of them are this way out of ignorance or deception. Others are this way because their egos won't let them admit that they are created by a loving God.

Like the horse in the story, I can lead them to water but I cannot make them drink. I cannot force them because that would be in violation of their free will. The only thing I can do is weep, shake their dust from my shoes, and move on.
