Compassion In A Desolate Place

The crowd was with Jesus for 3 days without food. Their desire to
be with Him was greater than their desire for food.
Jesus had compassion on the crowd. Compassion means to co-suffer
with someone. Jesus had more than empathy or pity; He suffered
with the crowd.
Jesus gave them what they needed to sustain them on their way
home.
Jesus knows more than anyone else what you are going through
because He has compassion for you. He endures your struggles with
you.
Jesus made sure the entire crowd was fed and satisfied. Even when
we can’t see Jesus from where we are, He still cares deeply for
us.
Being yoked with Jesus is another image of His compassion.
The compassion of God…
...gives our souls rest.
...restores our hope.
...leads us through the struggle to the cross.
...knows we’re starving and gives us the Bread of Life to sustain
us.
...gets us all the way home to Him.
...became the Passion of Christ.
