His Heart Always Goes Out For Everyone

When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, "Don't cry." Luke 7:13

I may not understand what you are going through in this life right now but allow me to say this to you. The Lord Jesus who has a compassionate and a graceful heart knows you so well. It is because you are extremely special in His eyes. Whether you realize it or not, the loving Lord Jesus keeps you in the beautiful place of His heart. The world and the people may reject you but the Lord will never let you go from the palm of His gentle hands. He knows what your situation is right now and He saw everything.

The love of God never recognizes skin colors, gender, status or language. His heart always goes out for everyone, even for those who do not know Him. This is what happened to the widow who lost her only son. The Lord Jesus was on His way to a town called Nain, and His disciples and a large crowd went along with Him. As He approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out – the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. Then the Bible says, "When the Lord saw her, His heart went out to her and He said, "Don't cry." Luke 7:13. Then He went up and touched the coffin. He said,"Young man, I say to you, get up!" Luke 7:13. And the Bible says, "The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother." Luke 7: 15.

Look at the heart of the Lord Jesus Christ, even the widow who does not know Him but the Lord was moved when He saw her crying for her dead son. See carefully the last verse of Luke 7:15, "and Jesus gave him (son) back to his mother". Not only He has compassion for the widow but the Lord was able to bring back the great loss for the widow again. In other words, the gracious and the merciful God is able to fix the issues of life in His own wonderful ways.

Dearest, as how the Lord has compassion to the widow, He, the unchanging Lord has the same compassion for all of us today. And as how He sees the widow, the never changing Lord sees you in the same way. His heart will always move for you and the Lord wants you to know that you are deeply cared for and greatly loved by Him. No matter what you have gone through in life and regardless of what you are facing right now, it is time to "Don't cry" because He wants to fix your situation. Your mourning season has come to an end. Be glad and start to praise Him.
