Help Others

 

Jesus was going through all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness. 

Seeing the people, He felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd.

They He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.  Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into this harvest.”

Matthew 9:35-38

 

Jesus saw many needy people and He ministered to everyone of them.  He understood that it was not only the physical bodies which had need of healing but also those who were suffering from distress.  

 

We need not be Doctors to minister to the needs of the sick or those who are distressed.  We can listen and show compassion and consideration and pray with those who are suffering.  We can offer a prayer or direct people to those who can help them, and this is the least we can do. 

 

Remember, Jesus calls us to help others.
