JESUS CHRIST , COMPASSIONATE GOD
JESUS CHRIST , COMPASSIONATE GOD
Someone said, "Compassion is a desire to reach out and make a difference in the life of someone else."
A banker had turned a man down for a loan, then made an unusual offer. He said to the man, "I have one good eye and one glass eye. If you can tell me which is which, I will approve your loan." The man looked for moment, then said, "Your left eye is your good eye."
The banker was surprised. "That's right," he said. "How could you tell?" The man said, "I detected a hint of compassion in the other eye."
Compassion is sharing the feelings of others and possessing a desire to help them in their trouble.
When we read the Gospels, they tell of Jesus and His great compassion for mankind. We see that our Savior is deeply moved in His inner being by the needs of those around Him. A brief study of the Gospels reveal the truth that His compassion knew no boundaries. Jesus felt the need of all classes and kind of people.
He revealed Himself in hundreds of ways in the Bible as Sovereign God, Gracious God , Holy God, the Lord of hosts, God of all comfort and God of compassion.
Our Lord Jesus used two illustrations to teach the need for compassion- The parable of Good Samaritan -Luke 10:30-37, and the parable of the prodigal son- Luke 15:11-24 .
At Jericho He had compassion on two blind men sitting by the wayside , and touched their eyes, and immediately their eyes received their sight (Matt 20: 30-34). Seeing a great multitude near the sea of Galilee, Jesus moved with compassion and healed their sickness (Matt 14:14).
He felt compassion towards others. Unlike the people of the world , Jesus cares more for our lives. When He saw the people scattered abroad as a sheep having no shepherd, He was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted.
Jesus felt compassion when He saw the people who were suffering.He healed the sick, cleansed the lepers, raised the dead and casted out devils.
The Lord taught us compassion by giving all He had and said,"Go and do likewise."
Let us heed the teachings of our Lord Jesus.
