Where were you when God's son was crying out for help?
Where were you when God's son came in from the streets filled with despair?
What did you do when God's son laid at the altar and poured his heart out?
What did you do when God's son contemplated suicide?
If you are wondering, I am not referring to God's only begotten son Jesus. I am referring to the guy sitting next to you in church. The guy who is regularly showing up alone, crying to the Lord for help. The guy who for weeks have been crawling up to the altar and making his peace with God.
Did it not come to mind that this man is in need of your help and that God has allowed you to witness his pain for a reason.
Did it not come to mind that God is looking to use you to answer this man's prayers.
If the Spirit of God is bringing someone to your mind at this time, it may be because God wants you to pursue that person with the same love that He pursued you with.
God is not pleased when His children remain in the pews and ignore those pleas for help, those crying faces around us, and those families that are in distress. If God would ignore our pleas in the same way that we are ignoring the pleas of those around us, we would all be hopeless.
Get involved, pursue love, become a lifeline, show him that you care.

Whenever Christians are unable to see Christ in their suffering brethren, they are blind indeed. God help the sleeping and complacent to wake up to the fact satan is busy isolating the unloved and ignored members of Christ's Body and destroying as many lives as possible.
