Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him...
Mark 1:41 NASB
If we want to be like Jesus, followers, Christians, then we are called to follow His example.
He was moved by compassion.
Sometimes we run out. Maybe that's just me.
On the same day as the Christchurch shooting, March 15, 45 migrants drowned in the Mediterranean off the coast of Spain.
Men. Women. Children.
What is Jesus antidote to compassion fatigue?
Love the person in front of you, the people in your life, the ones He has led you to.
Be moved by their story.
Their need
Their hurt
Their heart
Jesus reached out.
He calls us off the sidelines and into the arena, to reach out, to step towards... maybe in some small way today, maybe a big way, stretch out your hand.
Towards.
In compassion.
