“But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth.”Psalm 86:15
Compassion and love go hand in hand. A compassionate heart puts others first, helps others grow, forgives, and encourages. Jesus Christ was a living example of compassion. No matter what the person’s background, ethnicity, or whether they were rich or poor, the Lord forgave, met needs, solved problems, and healed wounds.
As a Christian, the Lord wants to love people through us. We need to have the heart of the Lord towards people- helping them in their troubles, encouraging them in their despair, and sharing our friendship with them in their loneliness.
Thought for the Day:
Like a window, people look through us to see Jesus Christ.
