Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter.” -Proverbs 24:11.
Seriously, how many of us really have taken that scripture literally? How many of us take any scripture literally? This is not a guilt trip I have prepared for you, but merely a wondering in my own life. I have known about this verse for a very long time. I remember reading it before all this complacency, back when I had passion in life. Before I don’t know what even happened. So, here I am simply saying that I think we really need to do this. Let us as the physical, living presence of Jesus Christ himself on earth be moved to more than a tear of sympathy. Do we care about the people around us who are dying? What about the people who have died? Those who chose to end the life they couldn’t see the light at the end of. Could they have been rescued? Yes. God can save anyone. He can do it. He will do it.
Have a passion, find one if need be, and if we can help you find your passion, contact us. Please. Lives depend on it, no kidding. People need what you have to offer. Don’t be complacent and apathetic like me.
It is not okay with me that my generation is committing suicide, cutting, depressed, addicted, hurting, going to hell, beat-down.
It is not okay with me that I haven’t even cared until tonight.
It is not okay with me that I haven’t cared for so long.
It is not okay with me, for once.
While we try to have normal lives, many are loosing theirs. While we sit, they disappear for good. It is not okay with me.
My problems are nothing. My excuses are nothing. It is not okay anymore.
Is it okay with you?
It shouldn’t be.
“As if something was broken in the world and we were to hold our palms against the wound.”
