Compassion

"The heart of the Gospel is that God loved us enough to come to where we were, so that we would love others enough to go where they are."

Putting yourself in someone else's place ...seeing things through their eyes , walking in their shoes These things aren't easy but this is what Christ did for us
He came here and experienced what we experience here on earth Something he didn't have to do.. he did it out of love.

"When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd."
Matthew 9:36


We need to reach out to others in love "If they reject you they'll only push you closer to the crucified life. If they accept you tell them, "Whatever you need, God has it, In spite of your circumstances it can be done, and I'll stand with you until it is"
