After a dream, I had last night and ongoing tender experiences in ministry, I want to urge the body of Christ to remain on the side of the suffering.

 

Often we move into callous memes and comments, forgetting there are real live human beings that need Christ.

 

Last night, I had a dream where I was sharing with a group of youth to “be careful with another girl’s heart.”

 

You’ll find me speak candidly regarding sin and repentance, so do not think I skirt around things. But I must see to the heart with the eyes of Jesus that were so often moved by what doesn’t seem to move us near enough.

 

Suffering is real even when one is in sin. Sin is a type of suffering I’ve found. I need so much the Holy Spirit to direct me on every heart, otherwise I could wound severely the cause of Christ in any life.

 

It is a season to search for the suffering and help them. We are helpers to Christ in a world in need of Him who is desperately suffering.

 

Lose the sarcastic memes. They don’t help us, and they aren’t the heart of Jesus.

 

He was moved by compassion for the suffering. If we follow Jesus for real, then we will be on the side of the suffering.

 

If you and I do tend the need

Christ will help with other things.

When mercy drips from gentle hands

Hearts can see His love for man.
