Reading: Genesis 37:12-28; Luke 10:25-37; 1 John 3:16-18
Devotional: "You are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph." This single line captures the tragedy of comfortable faith. Joseph's brothers sat down to eat while he wept in a pit. Israel feasted on ivory couches while neighbors starved. We scroll past suffering, our attention discipled by algorithms designed to soothe rather than stir. Compassion begins with noticing—truly seeing those our comfort has trained us to overlook. The Good Samaritan didn't theorize about helping; he stopped, saw, and acted. Jesus didn't send a memo about our need; He came down, took on flesh, and entered our suffering. Love isn't abstract theology; it's concrete action. Attention is how we wake up. Presence is how we love.
Reflection: Set aside your phone for one hour. Ask God: "Who am I not seeing? Whose cry have I missed?"
