Consider This...

Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you. (Ephesians 4:32 NLT)

So much hardheartedness in our world today, but God calls His children to be "tenderhearted" towards one another. We're to be sympathetic and compassionate to the needs of our brothers and sisters in Christ. It's easy to become jaded with all the brokenness that is around us, but Jesus said that people will know we are Christians by our love for each other (John 13:35). That includes more than just "saying" we're concerned for those who are hurting. It means we get involved in doing something to alleviate the needs whenever it's possible!
