recently, i encountered a hurting man. this man walked with a limp and just by watching him, i could feel his pain. in my heart, i knew his hurt was very great. this man's hurt and pain was overwhelming to me and i began to weep for him. i have seen numerous people in pain like this, but never has the Lord filled me with so much compassion towards someone as he did in my heart towards this particular man. i begged the Father for this man's healing. i asked for a time to pray with him for his healing. no matter what the Sovereign Lord decides to do, i am trusting in the Father for this man's healing. whether i ever know it or not, i know the Lord can heal him.
this is what the Lord showed me through this: He showed me a glimpse of His own heart. the Father feels our pain, every single tear we cry, He holds in His hand. the pain i felt inside for this man is what the Father feels when He sees us hurting. the Lord's compassion is so great, far greater than you or i could ever imagine. what a love. what a Father we have.
