Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.” Matthew 15:32
Citizens of the New Kingdom know that King Jesus taught his disciples compassion by his words and his example. He saw deep into the hearts of the people following him and he knew what they needed. He saw the thirst and hunger in their souls but he was also acutely aware of their physical needs too.
Citizens of the New Kingdom are encouraged to follow the example of our King. As important as it is to be concerned about people's souls we should never overlook their physical needs. As disciples of our King let us always do our part to serve others.
May we be obedient to King Jesus teachings on compassion.
