Compassion in Action

"But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd." (Matthew 9:36)

Compassion. That's the one thing people need more than anything else in this world. They need someone to reach out to them with the compassion of God.

Compassion is a deep yearning that responds to the needs of people. It's much deeper than sympathy. Sympathy can just sit around feeling sorry for people. Compassion has to do something for them.

live in harmony with one another

"Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble." - 1 Peter 3:8

 Sometimes Christians get so caught up in the little details in life that we forget one of the main ingredients of Jesus' teachings - LOVE. 

We all need to be compassionate and love each other because, with Jesus and the kind of love He taught, great things can happen. 

Have a wonderful day!
