compassion

When we serve the Lord, we have to have compassion and sympathy for others.  We all need hope and it's always good to give support.  People need to know that they are loved and they need to see Jesus in us.  Sometimes people hold things in, we hold things in and before you know it, the pain is so deep that we think things can't get better.  It's crazy out here and it's really important to stay close to God because if we don't we will become selfish and think the world revolves around us.  We are here to make a difference and if we can't love, what are we doing?  In 1 John 3:17 it states, If someone who has worldly means sees a brother in need and refuses him compassion, how can the Love of God remain in him.  Amen
