Somewhere......


 Somewhere a mother has sacrificed her kids to fulfill selfish desires...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a brother is drowning in alcohol and drugs...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a teenage girl believes sex is proof she really loves her boyfriend...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a desperate man is alone with a gun regretting his life...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere an elderly adult is being neglected by an adult child...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a student is being cyber-bullied...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a man is about to cut and run on his marriage...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere the Gospel is being rejected...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a father has lost his temper one too many times...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a Christ-follower is disobeying the Father...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a child of God’s is settling for less than His purposes...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere human flesh is being trafficked for profit...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere someone is getting too friendly online with someone other than their spouse...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a seeker is being turned off by legalistic, judgmental religion...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere two church members are gossiping about another woman...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a parent is acting out the same emotional abuse he/she received as a child...
And God’s heart aches

Somewhere a broken, flawed sinner like me is crying out to God...
And God smiles

Somewhere the Gospel is being shared...
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is doing small things with great love...
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is really trying to follow Christ...
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is taking the first step and seeking help...
And God smiles

Somewhere a wayward child is reaching out to a parent...
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is crying out for help with an addiction...
And God smiles

Somewhere justice is being sought for suffering women and children...
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is giving preferential treatment to others instead of self....
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is forgiving someone who has wronged them....
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is seeking forgiveness from someone they've wronged...
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is exercising self-control, patience, kindness and gentleness...
And God smiles

Somewhere someone is practicing humility...
And God smiles

Somewhere a heart is broken for the things that break God’s heart...
And God smiles
