I feel so bad for the people out there who have to endure all the pain and evils of this world. I wish so badly that I could just take all of it for them. I can take it. Just give the weak a rest, give the scared some relief, give the depressed hope. I don't mean to say any of this to boast, I just need to say it. If I had the opportunity to take all the pain of this world in place of someone else, I would. I can be strong. I can't stand to think that there are people out there who don't have the will to live another day while I'm here with no worries, no burdens. It's so hard for me to understand why God would let people kill themselves because they feel unloved.
People can feel so many big things. Things like hatred, sorrow, emotional pain, despair, hopelessness, anxiety, fear. Those are such big emotions. They are enough to tear us down and kill us. But more powerful than any of them is love. Love can turn a life around in an instant. It can alter your eternal destiny. Love is shown by action. Love is sacrifice. Love is not easy. Not real love. And I feel like I have so much love inside me, I just want to let it all out. I want to love people. I want to sacrifice for people. I would do anything to let the hopeless people of the world know that I love them. And even more, that Jesus Christ loves them.
I think I'm beginning to understand how Jesus felt as he died on the cross for us. It's a desperate attempt to pour out every ounce of love He had for us. It was his joy. He loves us.
I don't know why I wrote this I just felt like I should.
