Compassion is not selective.Listen closely and try o find your place in this story. Compassion is a basis for joy for the one who receives it and also the one who gives it.
If you gave ever struggled with something in life or maybe you are struggling right now, God has not forgotten you. Jesus always showed compassion on those who were hurting physically with illnesses, spiritually with demons and false teachers and emotionally by selfish leaders.Know that the Christian life is a compassionate life and even by your showing ompassion, you will also find what you need.
How big a part does showing compassion paly in your life? O are you a sympathetic person? Sympathy is a shared feeling with someone but compassion is a call to action from that sympathy. This is why Jesus spent so much time with sinners, because they needed His healing touch of compassion.Jesus showed compassion to all kinds of people and told stories about it as well. His greatest act of compassion can be seen as you visualize Him on the cross dying for your sins.Can you now take the compassion that He showed to you and show it to others?

Jesus comes on the scene and encourages us that He is the Good Shepherd who does the same for us as the shepherd does for the sheep.And Jesus went to the extent that He laid His life down for us sheep.This is what gives us hope for the future because by laying His life down, He atoned for our sins and opened ujp a way to Heaven for those who believe.
Sometimes life in the present can be very discouraging. We can find ourselves feeling like we are in a wilderness experience, dry, barren with no life. But the good news is, for the follower of Jesus Christ, there is hope. That's because with Him we have a very bright future.Jesus is the Promise of God and in that Promise many wonderful things wait for us. Don't be discouraged but listen carefully to see what you have in Christ.
Jesus talks about these three important realities and the third one lasts forever. We would do well to understand the first two so our lives here on earth can be fulfilling and listen carefully to the last one so you life in the hereafter ca be joyous.
God's economy is opposite the economy of this world. In this world, you keep by saving but with God you keep by losing and you lose by saving.
