Devotion Matthew 28:18-20 Eternal Love, Compassion And

Matthew 28:18-20 – Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

Psalm 147:3 – He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

This is always what is most important. Love, compassion and kindness outweigh any other “benevolent” other actions. But not kindness for the sake of being kind, but being kind because kindness lives within because Jesus lives within in. Love, compassion and kindness by themselves have no eternal value. True and pure love, compassion and kindness leads those who don’t personally know Jesus to Him. That is the kindest act one person can do for another. Nothing higher, nothing more noble. The Answer is always Jesus. Jesus, lover of our souls. Be practically kind. More importantly give kindness of eternal value. Lift up Jesus, He is what we all need. For me, more of Jesus, every day, more of Jesus.

EMOTIONAL NIGHT LAST NIGHT : I went to McDonald’s last night a place I never go I just needed something quick because I’ve been stuck in the house because of this virus and because of my knee operation. I get to the window and the young man handed me my coffee . I noticed the cuts on his wrists. Tears just started flowing. When he came back to give me food he saw me and said “sir are you ok.” I told him “ I’ll be ok if you just promise me to keep fighting. I can see your peace has been drained and your happiness has been stolen, but God is getting ready to grant you a joy that can never been taken from you.” I pulled away and just sat in the parking lot to get myself together. 5 mins later that young man came running out to my car crying and asking me to pray with him because today was the first day he felt alive and that someone cared for him in 4 years. Today he gave his life to Christ!!! And I’ll be meeting his parents to get him some help later this week!!! Church doors maybe closed but God is still moving. Y’all continue to pray for our young people. We are all in this together!!!
