Scripture: Romans 12:15

“Rejoice with those who rejoice, mourn with those who mourn.”

Empathy is not about offering solutions first; it’s about entering into another person’s emotional world. The sermon highlights how people long for acknowledgment — to hear “I see you, I hear you, you’re not alone.” Jesus modeled this empathy when He wept with those who were grieving. Sometimes the most powerful ministry you can offer is presence, shared tears, or shared joy. These simple actions remind others that their feelings matter.

Reflection Question:

How can you better acknowledge and honor the emotions of someone close to you?
