Thought and Songs for Today

Are you attentive to the needs of those around you? Do you notice their struggles, their pain, and the weight they carry each day? Can you recognize when someone is feeling sorrowful or overwhelmed? And in those moments, do you contribute to their burden—or do you offer comfort and support? Take time today to reflect on the profound gift of empathy and compassion. Genuine Christian empathy is a loving response to the suffering of others. It is an expression of Mercy that we are called to nurture, so we may help lighten the load of those entrusted to our care. “Bear one another’s burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ.” – Galatians 6:2

Be Thou My Vision

It Is Well With My Soul
