have compassion!

hey everyone!
sorry my blogs have been so late recently, i've been soo busy with dance lately because its the end of the season. sorry i've yet to finish my 'strength' blog, i'll finish it as soon as i can i promise. so today was a busy day. i had to be at school at 7:30 am for AP exam and then after that i went and visited weston in his 4th period & then it was off to applebees with the girls after that i came home and relaxed for a little bit then i had to run off to dance rehersal and i JUST got home. i dont understand why company has to do rehersal, we've done these dances 5 million times and we've done 4 competitions, which are much more important than recital anyway, but oh well. sorry, i'll stop complaning. Jesus really calmed me before the AP exam today, thanks Jesus:] hes pretty amazing. so anyway, last night my devotion was on compassion. Hebrew 10:24 says, "And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works" which means we should consider others and love others when we do things. 1 Peter 3:8 says, "Finally, be ye all of one mind having compassion one of another, love as bretheren, be pitiful, be curteous" which means as Christians we should have compassion for one another, and love eachother as family. We need to be curteous and caring and not rude. Colossians 3:12 says, "Put on therefore, as the elect of God, honly and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindess, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering" which is telling us we need to be kind to one another, as Christians we should show the world our compassion so they can see God through us. and know that he is real. like many at church say, sometimes our most powerful witnessing tool is our actions. lastly, Micah 6:8 says, "He hath shown thee, o man, what is good and waht doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with thy God" which is saying that God requires us to be compassionate, to be just, and to be humble. As Christians we should live these lives, and i know that it is sometimes hard, but think ab out it, what did Jesus do?
well i love y`all
God Bless!
