Scripture: When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. – Luke 7:13
Mornings with God Devotional 3 October 2022 Message
When Jesus was here He touched every phase of the world’s need. The Roman soldier found Him able to heal his slave without even going to the house. The widow, following her son to the grave, does not seem even to have known of Jesus before. His meeting with the funeral procession seems to have been accidental.
We know, however, that it was not accidental on the part of the Master. He knew of the woman’s sorrow, though He was far away. His heart went out to her in sympathy because she was a widow, and because he whom she was carrying to the grave was her only son.
Then He directed His path so that He would meet the sorrowful procession before it reached the burying–place. There was no funeral that day, and the procession was changed to one of joy.
So Christ does always. Even when we do not call upon Him for comfort, He meets us with His blessing. Christ has not left the earth – He is still here.
