Compassion
He will rescue the poor when they cry to him; he will help the oppressed, who have no one to defend them. He feels pity for the weak and the needy . . . for their lives are precious to him.
Our world is full of people who are desperate to experience the compassion of Jesus in their lives. Compassion is about opening our hearts to those around us who are hurting. It involves caring for the people Jesus cared for—the poor, oppressed, and weak. Ask God to open your eyes to those around you who need his love and kindness. Let him pierce your heart with compassion so you can be his hands and feet to this hurting world.
