Stirred By The Scriptures

Matthew tells us that when Jesus went around simply walking and “doing” life, he saw people. No matter how busy he was he saw what life was like for the average person. He saw them harassed and helpless, the result was he had compassion on them. What do you and I see when we look at people? I am not only referring to our family and close friends. I am talking about the countless faces who intersect our lives every day. Are they a bother, do they annoy me or do they just not matter? Lord, give me a heart of compassion to those who come my way.
