My Lord is Compassionate

Scripture: John 11:33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.

Observation: I don’t understand why Jesus cares so much for us, especially the way we treat Him. Tomorrow will be Good Friday and we will remember the most loving act imaginable that God so loved us that He sent His son to suffer for us to take away our sins. I wonder how many times my lord was moved or troubled when He saw what I put myself through. His hand and heart must have gone out each time I tried to end this life He gave me.

Application: I need to draw nearer to God and tell Him how much I appreciate and love Him. This is not my life and never was I’m God’s creation and He owns me and I need to honor Him. I don’t want my Lord to be troubled over me anymore. I want Him to look down and be pleased with the man He created.

Prayer: My Lord I know that you love me you show me all the time. I freely give you this life and ask that you would use it in a way the glorifies you. May I not cause you anymore heartaches, but bring joy to you as you do me.
