God's Compassionate Love
Mark 6:30-34
30 And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught. 31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat. 32 And they departed into a desert place by ship privately. 33 And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him. 34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.
Thoughts:
Jesus' compassion for the crowd, seeing them as "sheep without a shepherd," reflects God's deep love for humanity. Today, reflect on how God sees you with that same compassionate love. Are there areas in your life where you feel lost or directionless? Remember that Jesus is your Good Shepherd, ready to guide and care for you. How can you extend this compassionate love to others in your community who may be feeling lost or alone?
Prayer:
Ask God to reveal and help you to extend His love beyond those that you are around everyday.
