On My Heart: Compassion

To know

His heart is to

know compassion.

“When He saw the crowds,

He felt compassion for them,

because they were distressed

and dejected, like sheep

without a shepherd.”

(Matt. 9:36 CSB)

To know Him, to follow Him

is to seek to have His heart,

to ask Him to open our eyes

to those who need His love.

“The harvest is abundant,

but the workers are few. 

Therefore, pray to the Lord

of the harvest to send out

workers into His harvest.”

(Matt. 9:37-38 CSB)

This year, this week,

and today … Lord, give me

Your heart of compassion
for Your harvest.
