Matthew 14:14 says, “When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them . . . .” I have been praying, “Lord, help me see people as you see them.” When Jesus saw people, He felt for them. He actually saw them, cared for them, and recognized their need. It is easy to not see the person behind his/her job, behind appearances, behind ideologies. Lord, help me see people as you see them. Help me see peoples’ need for Jesus.
