Sorrow for the Lost


Lamentations 3:48-49, 57-58  
48 My eyes overflow with rivers of water For the destruction of the daughter of my people.  49 My eyes flow and do not cease, Without interruption, 57 You drew near on the day I called on You, And said, “Do not fear!”  58 O Lord, You have pleaded the case for my soul; You have redeemed my life.

Do I cry over those lost from God's mercy and grace as I see them heading to destruction in their sin?  I think of how He came to me and took away my fears as He pleaded my case on the cross by which He bought my life back from sin, death, and justly deserved Hell.  How can what He did for me not drive me to my knees for others?
