Title:
Showing Compassion
|
Leviticus 19:9-10
9. Now when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap to the very corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
10. Not shall you glean your vineyard, nor shall you gather the fallen fruit of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the needy and for the stranger. I am the LORD your God.
God told the Israelites not to harvest all of their vineyards, and the crops in the harvest. He was showing them to be compassionate to the poor and the to people who may be traveling through their land. Someone may be hungry and not have the money to buy food. By the Israelites leaving the fallen fruit and leaving crops from the harvest many could be fed, God was giving them a lesson about love your neighbor and teaching them to show compassion to others who were less fortune. This is one thing that we need to practice in our Christian walk with God. We need to show compassion and help others when given the opportunity. We need to extend our hand in friendship to a person who is lonely. Just sit and listen to someone who needs us to extend a listening ear. To be a shoulder that someone can cry on, just to be a friend to someone who is hurting. We also need to tell the lost about Jesus. That He came to save all sinners, if we will accept Him and believe that He is God's only Son. Sent to die for our sins. Let us be messengers for God, to tell the world of the good news that Jesus lives today. That He died on the cross for our sins, but Praise God HE AROSE ON THE THIRD DAY. Let us always show compassion towards others, regardless of who they are. Every soul matters to God in heaven. Let us not be picky about who we tell about Jesus. Let us be compassionate and have the desire to tell a lost and dying world that Jesus can save their soul. That He has paid the price for our sins. All we have to do is believe in Him.
Showing Compassion
Father, I have come to you many times in need
Every single time You have answered my plead
Father, many times I have turned to You with my frustration
I have come to You crying, feeling such loss and devastation
Not one time Father have You ever turned me away
Let me show this compassion that You have for others everyday
Let me practice the love and compassion that You have shown me
To extend this compassion to others, so that Your love they can see
Father, let me love my neighbors, as You have loved me
Telling all the world of Jesus Christ, that He can set them free
Father, let compassion and love be seen in everything that I do
So that I can tell the world, about this true love that comes from You
