The man opened his eyes and evaluated the situation as if he was unaware of all that had transpired. Oh, you're right. I guess I should do something about it. We just came from the hospital where their mother died about an hour ago. I don't know what to think, and I guess they don't know how to handle it either.
Compassion is a necessary part of ministry.
Matthew tells us that Jesus' ministry was one of compassion. Jesus touched the leper, healed the blind and lame, and spent time with social outcasts. Let us live each day following Christ's example of being compassionate and a source of strength to those around us who are hurting. Used by permission. Learn how to invest.
