OUR COMPASSIONATE AND LOVING SAVIOUR

“And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.  And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.  And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.”

Mark 1:40-42 KJV

Jesus is the great Physician.  If you don’t feel good and it doesn’t matter if you don’t feel good emotionally, physically or spiritually, go to Jesus.  He is able to heal us no matter what is wrong with us.  Also, if you feel all alone, you aren’t alone because Jesus never leaves us, not even for a minute.

Not only is Jesus the great Physician and our best Friend, He is also our compassionate and loving Saviour.  He really cares when we are hurting.  When we cry, He weeps with us and when we laugh, He rejoices with us.  I have many wonderful friends but Jesus is the best Friend I have ever had or ever will have.

We should follow the example that Jesus has set for us and be compassionate and loving, especially to those who are hurting.  We also need to be kind and loving to our family.  Unless they tell us what is in their heart, we only know what we see and what they tell us but Jesus knows.  He sees what is in their heart.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Jesus.  Please help us to be kind, compassionate and loving to everyone.  Jesus, thank You for caring about us and for never leaving us.  You are our compassionate and loving Saviour and I love You with all my heart.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
