His compassion

"He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick." (Matthew 14:14a)

Jesus knows us. Our past, our present, our tomorrow. What we have done, are doing and what we will do, yet His compassion for us remains.

He sees our need and His heartfelt, overwhelming response is to reach out to us and heal us.

He never sends us away, like friends, lovers, neighbors may. He is ever present. He cares for us. He encourages us. He builds our faith. He questions our doubt.

He gives worshipful praise to His Father. He constantly prays to Him for us.

Oh, if we could only be more like Him.
