Jesus Has Compassion For Us

Jesus loves us all so very much. So much so that He gave His own life for us. Just thinking about the magnitude of God's love for us sets me in awe. To think that our Abba said, "I'll turn my own son into sin itself, just to save and redeem them" is overwhelming. The thing is, is that a lot of people fail to realize exactly how much compassion that Jesus has for us. If we all really had a real revelation on that, they way we live our lives would change.

When I see someone with their head hanging down or someone whose heart has broken, I automatically think,"I wonder if they know the love of Jesus?" We are living in a world that  is full of pain. Life is an emotional roller coaster and we have to take the good with the bad. But if we really began to understand exactly how much Jesus loves us then it would truly make life a lot easier.

On this righteous path there are many ups and downs, as far as what we go through. We can be standing on top of the mountain victorious one minute and the next minute be down in the valley, feeling defeated. When these bad times come, ill feeling emotions come along with them. But what we must understand is that we aren't hurting alone. God hurts right along with us. Every pain you feel, He feels it just like you, if not worse because He has taken all of the pain of the world and placed it on His shoulders. Jesus has so much compassion for us! Do you think your Father wants you to be sitting around, broken down, defeated and depressed? No! He loves you and He wants you to prosper in every aspect of your life. Don't ever think that God doesn't care about what your going through. He cares more than you'll ever know.

One passage comes to mind when I begin to think about the love and compassion that Jesus has for each and everyone of us. It is in John 11, when Lazarus has died and Jesus goes to see Mary and Martha.

"When Mary reached the place where Jesus was & saw Him, she fell at His feet and said, 'Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.' When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. 'Where have you laid him?' He asked. 'Come and see, Lord,' they replied. Jesus wept. Then the Jews said, 'See how He loved him!" ~John 11:32-36

Jesus not only felt their pain but He cried with them, and its the same today. God loves us! We are His children! When you hurt, He hurts! When your in pain, He is in pain! When your heart has been broken, so has His! When you grieve, the Holy Spirit is grieving right along with you! So don't ever think you're alone in your rough times, God is right there with you. Call on Him and let Him free you from pain, misery and sorrow. We don't have a Savior who doesn't understand what we go through. Jesus understands very much so what we go through because He had to endure it Himself. But remember He overcame it all and so will you. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has so much compassion for us! Don't hold on to pain. Go to the feet of Jesus, where true peace is found and let your soul be set free!

God Bless!
