Mark
8:2-3
I have compassion on the
multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to
eat: And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by
the way: for divers of them came from far.
The Lord Cares About Our Needs
The
Lord Jesus had been teaching the people wonderful things but He cared for even
more than eternal spiritual truths. He
cared about temporal human need as well.
Jesus was moved and had compassion that these people were hungry. He was even sensitive to how far they had
travelled to come. He even considered
the results of certain types of solutions to their need. We learn that our Lord cares about our human
needs. He doesn’t just provide for our
needs, His compassion is associated with His provision. What a loving God we have. If you find yourself a bit overwhelmed with
the human side of existence, remember that your Lord has compassion on you and
will take care of you because He loves you!
