A Prayer for Compassion

Jesus is our Good Shepherd, but most of us don't really know all that it takes to be a shepherd. In today's episode, Nicolet Bell shares a story about a little lamb that paints a beautiful picture of how Jesus cares for each of us.Jesus not only had compassion but also acted on it, caring for every need He encountered. Today, He challenges us to look at the needs around us—with our families, children, and communities—and step into the harvest field. Compassion is not just a feeling but a call to action.

Reference: Matthew 9:35-38

Prayer: Jesus, Your love and compassion are endless. Help me to have a heart for other people and a willingness to get up and help them. Give me Your compassion so that I can continue to have a servant’s heart even when it’s difficult, and help me to model that for my children. Give us strength when it feels like it’s too much. In Your name, amen.
