            He went.

            • Matthew 9:35 – “Jesus continued going…”
              • Teaching

                    • Jesus understood that people needed healing and he provided it.

                      • He Noticed.

                      • Matthew 9:36 – “when he saw the crowds…”
                        • He didn’t overlook them or look past them. He saw them.

                          • He felt.

                          • Compassion
                            • Matthew 9:36
                            • splagchnizomai (Greek: σπλαγχνίζομαι) – to be moved as to one’s bowels, hence to be moved with compassion, have compassion (for the bowels were thought to be the seat of love and pity)

                              • Matthew 9:37
                                • The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few

                                  • Our Response

                                  We Embody Jesus

                                  • Luke 6:40
                                  • We want to be like Him.

                                    • We Proclaim

                                    • Acts 1:8

                                          • We can make a difference in a world of chaos.

                                            • The most important thing to remember is how desperately God loves you.

                                            • The world is full of individuals that God loves individually.
