compassion

Well...as the past few months have gone by, for some reason(and a good one at that) my heart has been growing with compassion for the people around me. I have always felt bad for people under certain circumstances but lately some things just burden my heart for these people that have something bad happen to them, whether it be serious or even just something like they fell in public or something. After feeling these serious burdens in my heart, I wonder if it has something as to what God wants me to do with my life. I have still yet to figure that out and have been praying about that for quite some time and I know other people are too. As of now I just wonder if it has something to do with that, but I don't know exactly what it is that would have to do with that. I will have to continue praying and hope that others will do the same for me! Since I was younger, I have always been told that I didn't have a heart and all this, mainly joking, but I definitely do now. I have actually cried because of thinking about Kirk having to eat and then sit by himself at my house. I HATE when people have to eat by themselves. It absolutely breaks my heart and just to think he was sitting by himself just makes me cringe. That is silly I know but just one example of the crazy compassion I have felt lately. Well I guess that might not be compassion to others but...lol I just have a compassion in my heart to try and make other people's lives better. Maybe it being sitting with them when they are alone or helping someone that has fallen. I have never felt this bad for this many people in my life. And I mean I feel sorry for people ALOT. I just pray God continues to fill me with this specific compassion for others. I pray He shows me alot through it and maybe even what He wants me to do with my life :D In my Bible, it says the definition of compassion: sympathy, usually granted because of unusual or distressing circumstances. I thank God for the compassion He has for us continuously and His compassion for us to have a relationship with Him. Without Him I am nothing!
Psalms 86:15-"But you, O Lord, are a God of compassion and mercy, slow to get angry, and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness."
Romans 9:15- "For God said to Moses, 'I will show mercy to anyone I choose, and I will show compassion to anyone I choose.' "
I pray this compassion in me for others will continue to grow and God will show me why I have this compassion and what it may bring in my future!
