No Problemනියැදිය

We've all had a front-row seat to second-hand embarrassment. You know the scene where someone takes an epic fall, spilling every drop of their pumpkin spice latte, only to be left feeling red-faced and decaffeinated. Though you didn't physically go through this scenario (or maybe you did), you know how it feels. With all eyes on them, this person sits there . . . gazing at all the sorrowful faces and gasps. Everyone is embarrassed for them.

Obviously, this isn't an everyday occurrence, but the concept of empathy and mercy is still evident. We can even take Jesus for example — he became human so that he could better understand and help us when we go through struggles. We should care about other people's worries and concerns. Why? Because Jesus modeled empathy for us. We have an opportunity to look out for others as we go about our lives, caring for anyone in need — just like Jesus did.

Challenge yourself to offer an act of kindness to someone this week. You never know when something small could go a long way.
