You see, sometimes we get so busy 32 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 5: in life that we don't even notice the people around us. 33 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 5: We have jobs, we have families, we have chores, responsibilities, 34 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 5: and sometimes those things can keep us so focused on 35 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 5: ourself and what we need to get done that we 36 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 5: forget about the people around us. We don't understand that 37 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 5: maybe they need something from us. And God wants us 38 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 5: to open our heart of compassion, to see through the 39 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 5: eyes of this compassion and see what the people around 40 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 5: us need. See, God wants to flow through us to 41 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 5: other people. He wants to use us as an instrument 42 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 5: of love. He wants us to be the hands and 43 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 5: feet of Him right down here on this earth. But 44 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 5: we're never going to be that until we begin to 45 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 5: understand this feeling that God wants to put in us 46 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 5: so that it can flow out of us. It says 47 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 5: in John three p. Seventeen, if anyone sees his brother 48 00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 5: in need and yet closes his heart of compassion, is 49 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 5: the love of God in him? Question mark? You see? 50 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 5: This scripture says we all have a heart of compassion, 51 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 5: and it indicates that this heart, this chamber that God 52 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 5: wants to work through, can either be opened or it 53 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 5: can be closed. It can be shut off, and as 54 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 5: a result of it being shut off, the love of 55 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 5: God cannot flow out of it. We don't recognize what 56 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 5: God wants to do through us, and can I tell 57 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 5: you right now? God wants to work through you. He's 58 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 5: not looking at your mistakes, he's not looking at your past. 59 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 5: He is looking at who He wants you to be 60 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 5: and the things He wants to do through your life. 61 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 5: Because you are very influential, you hold value in substance 62 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 5: and in your sphere of atmssphere wherever you travel. God 63 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 5: wants you to use what he's given you. And the 64 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 5: first way to use what He's given us is to 65 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 5: recognize that God wants to put in us. The ability 66 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 5: to understand this compassion and how it works in our life. 67 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 5: You see. I believe that's the reason some people are 68 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 5: very unhappy today. It's because they close their heart of compassion. 69 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 5: They're not paying attention to the people around them, to 70 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 5: the world around them. You see, if we're going to 71 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 5: live this full life in the abundance that God has 72 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 5: given us, we need to stir up this heart of 73 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 5: compassion and say, God, give me eyes to see what 74 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 5: you'd have me do today. Open my mind and my 75 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 5: heart to the people who need your love. All through 76 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 5: the Bible we can read this. When Jesus walked the earth, 77 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 5: he saw the multitudes, and the Bible says that he 78 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 5: was moved with compassion. He saw the sick. It says 79 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 5: that he had this deep inward moving of compassion. He 80 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 5: saw two blind men. They were yelling his name, Jesus, 81 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 5: son of David, have mercy on me. It says he 82 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 5: was moved in his inner being with compassion. It's interesting 83 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 5: because Jesus walked over to where those blind men were. 84 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 5: He turned right around, he walked over. He looked them 85 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 5: right in the face. They couldn't see him, but I 86 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 5: bet they could feel him. They could feel him. They 87 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 5: felt that compassion. They said, have mercy on us. He said, 88 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 5: what do you want? They said, we want to see 89 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 5: And do you know that compassion that was in Christ 90 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 5: Jesus took went out of him in power and healed 91 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 5: those two blind men. You see, compassion is powerful. Compassion 92 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 5: can bring forth miracles. You see, Jesus fed the multitudes 93 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 5: because of the compassion. Jesus healed the sick, open blind eyes, 94 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:22,359 Speaker 5: because he understood that God was saying, this is your time. 95 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 5: Move out in compassion. You see, he didn't just feel 96 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 5: sorry for him. He didn't just say, oh that's pitiful. 97 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 5: Ah man, that's too bad. Oh my heart hurts for them. 98 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 5: You see, his compassion had action, It moved, it had action. 99 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 5: And you see you may say to me today, well, 100 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 5: I don't think I can open blind eyes. I don't 101 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 5: think I can heal the sick. I can't feed the multitudes. 102 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 5: But do you know the compassion that lives in you? 103 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 5: When you're aware of it, it will cause you to 104 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 5: move out in power. It will give you the desire 105 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 5: to help someone else, because see, it's not you, it's 106 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 5: the power of God in you being released to someone 107 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 5: else for a miracle. How freeing is that. Don't put 108 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 5: the pressure on yourself. Say God, I understand what you're 109 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 5: doing on the inside of me, and God, I am 110 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 5: going to reach out and move in the compassion that 111 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 5: you've given me, this divine flow of love. You see, 112 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 5: we are directed to follow love and let it guide us. 113 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 5: When you feel this compassion, this compassion is from God. 114 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 5: This compassion has miracle working power in it. You see. 115 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 5: Sometimes we're looking for a miracle, but God wants you 116 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 5: to be someone's miracle. He wants you to release your influence, 117 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 5: your power, your love on this earth. Jesus said there 118 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 5: was two great commandments. The first one is love God 119 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,679 Speaker 5: with all of your heart, with all of your mind, 120 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 5: and with all of your soul. And he said the 121 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 5: second is this one, and it's just like the first. 122 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 5: Love your neighbor as your self. There was an expert 123 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 5: in the law when Jesus was saying this scripture, and 124 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 5: he said, Jesus, how am I supposed to know who 125 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 5: my neighbor is? What classifies a neighbor? Who am I 126 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 5: supposed to love like I would love myself? And Jesus 127 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 5: told a parable, told a parable about a man who 128 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 5: was walking to Jericho, a band of robbers came and 129 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 5: attacked him, beat him, bruised him, stole all he had, 130 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 5: and left him on the side of the road for dead. 131 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 5: A priest came by, saw the man, went to the 132 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 5: other side of the road and walked past him. You see, 133 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 5: we can't be too busy to notice you see, it 134 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 5: doesn't disqualify us because we go to the other side. 135 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 5: A levite man, probably assistant to the priests. They had 136 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 5: something to do and somewhere to go. He saw the man. 137 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 5: The scripture says that he walked to the other side 138 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 5: of the street and kept on his way, totally ignoring 139 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 5: the wounded man. But then there was a Samaritan. He 140 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 5: was walking down the road. He said, what is that 141 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 5: on the street? Looked over there, and it was a 142 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 5: man wounded, laying there, bleeding, about to die. The Bible 143 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 5: says that he bandaged him up, took care of him, 144 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,959 Speaker 5: put him on his animal, took him to an end, 145 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 5: gave the innkeeper money and said, hey, can you help 146 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 5: me take care of this guy? Give you money. I'm 147 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 5: going to have to leave, but I'll come back and 148 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 5: I'll pay any expenses that you've occurred from helping him. 149 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 5: You see, we're all busy. Even that man must have 150 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 5: been busy. He had to leave to take care of something. 151 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 5: But he said, look, he reached out and said, if 152 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 5: you'll help me, help this man, I'll give you what 153 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 5: you need. Jesus said to the expert of the law, 154 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 5: which one of these three men do you think was 155 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 5: a neighbor to this guy. The expert of the law said, 156 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 5: the one who showed mercy. And he said, that's right. 157 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 5: He said, Now you go and do the same. Do 158 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 5: the same. Jesus is saying, you go and do the same, 159 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 5: have mercy, open your heart of compassion. Let me work 160 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 5: through you, Let me use you in a powerful way. 161 00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 5: Don't worry about trying to do it yourself. That the 162 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 5: flow of compassion, the divine love that I'm pouring out, 163 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:10,239 Speaker 5: has power in itself. You see, when about eight years ago, 164 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 5: I lived next door to a beautiful family. I was 165 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 5: a wife and a husband and two beautiful young girls. 166 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 5: And the wife was my age. And she came down 167 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 5: with cancer, and she eventually died of cancer. I went 168 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 5: to the funeral and I began to talk to the 169 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 5: young girls, and they were so precious. My heart went 170 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 5: out to them and so I became friends with the 171 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 5: older girl. She was probably only twelve years old, but 172 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 5: I told her how much I loved her and that 173 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 5: I'll do anything for her. I'm right next door and 174 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 5: invited her her to church, and she came to church 175 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 5: on several occasions and loved it so much. But shortly 176 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 5: after that, her family moved away and I lost touch. 177 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 5: Life gets busy. I didn't know where they moved to. 178 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 5: You know, just about three days ago, I was putting 179 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 5: on my makeup, getting ready for the day, getting ready 180 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 5: to go out, and something in my heart just thought 181 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 5: about this girl. Now, I thought about where where is 182 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 5: that young girl? I begin to think about her, just 183 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 5: right out of the blue. I wasn't thinking about her. 184 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 5: I wasn't. It just came into my heart. I don't 185 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 5: know why God put that in my heart after eight 186 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 5: long years, but I really feel like that it was 187 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 5: his divine flow of love for this girl. And I 188 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 5: begin to pray for her. I begin to say, Lord, 189 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 5: I don't know where she is, but you know where 190 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 5: she is. 191 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 6: God. 192 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 5: I'm asking you whatever she needs, Father, meet every need 193 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 5: that she has. Give her wisdom. God. If there's anything 194 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 5: coming against her, Father, just stop that scheme right now 195 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 5: in Jesus' name, and I began to pray for her 196 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 5: and pray for her in that compassion just came up 197 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 5: out of me and I continue to pray. I told 198 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 5: Joel later, I said, you're not gonna believe God put 199 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 5: this in my heart. I don't know what all you 200 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 5: want me to do with it, but I'm going to 201 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 5: try to reach out to her. So I tried to 202 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 5: look her up on Facebook and I couldn't find her. 203 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 5: So I've asked a couple friends, Hey, do you remember 204 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 5: this family? If you know where they are, could you 205 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 5: tell me or get in touch with them and let 206 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 5: them know that I am thinking about them, And one 207 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 5: in particular, the girls, could they maybe reached back and 208 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 5: touch me or give me their number and I'll touch them. 209 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 5: You see, my heart of compassion was there. It's not 210 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 5: just enough to feel sorry for those girls because they 211 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 5: lost their parents. I want to move in this compassion. 212 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 5: I want to move out in this compassion because I 213 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 5: think to myself, what if it was my children, What 214 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 5: if it was my son and my daughter and I 215 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 5: left this earth and someone thought about them. But that's 216 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 5: all they did was think about them. I would soul 217 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 5: want someone to reach out and touch them, to pray 218 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 5: for them. And you see, God may some people on 219 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 5: your heart. Maybe you've thought about some people. Maybe your 220 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 5: spouse was saying some things you didn't recognize yesterday, but 221 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 5: today you think, Wow, they were hurting. Listen, God wants 222 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 5: you to act on that compassion. You see a coworker 223 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 5: at work sitting across the room and you just you 224 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 5: feel like, oh, man, got lee kind of sorry for them. 225 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 5: Recognize that's God He's saying, move, move, reach out. You'll 226 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 5: never know the impact of what a phone call can do, 227 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 5: or the significance of someone of your words saying to someone, Hey, 228 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 5: I'm thinking about you, I care about you, I love you. Hey, 229 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 5: you're gonna make it. I'm praying for you. You see, those 230 00:14:55,280 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 5: simple words of hope can turn someone's life around, can 231 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 5: open blind eyes and give them a new perspective, can 232 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 5: heal a heart and change the course of their destiny. 233 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 5: You see, God has called us to move out in compassion, 234 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 5: to be the hands and the feet of Jesus. So 235 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 5: today let's pray. God open that heart of compassion. Let 236 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 5: me see hurting people around me. Yeah, I may have 237 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 5: to stop what I'm doing. I may have to take 238 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 5: some time, maybe even some money. But God, I know 239 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 5: that when i'm someone's miracle, you will make sure I 240 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 5: get all the miracles that I need. Amen.
