What stirs you up? What grabs your heart? What compels you to action?
When you see reports from nations torn apart by war, or the massive human devastation of an earthquake... does something move inside of you?
When you feel the needs of others so deep in your gut that you start wondering, what can I do? You are on the edge - the edge of compassion.
The edge can offer a great vantage point, but you can't just remain at your look out spot taking in the view. Compassion steps off the edge and takes the plunge into a world of hurt, so that others can have some relief and have some hope.
It's what Jesus did, and it's what He's calling you to do.
This BRILLIANT new devotional for 2010 is a valuable companion to have with you on your Mission Trip this year.
