Greek: Splagchnizomai (splangkh-nid’-zom-ahee), To have the bowels yearn, be moved with compassion, have compassion (the nobler entrails \u2013 the heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys. These gradually came to denote the seat of all affections).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Luke, compassion is described using the Greek word splagchnizomai. Luke is describing Jesus\u2019 compassion for the sinners around Him. It is more than a pragmatic need to help; it is an emotional connection to their condition. Christ didn\u2019t just have compassion for their lives but more profound compassion for their eternal existence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matthew 9:36,<\/strong> \u201cWhen he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compassion is the root of God\u2019s purpose for your life. It is through compassion we learn to love. It is through compassion that we act. The challenge is to move compassion from your head to your heart. Many good causes evoke compassion. Who can look away when a small child is hungry? Scenes of poverty elicit a strong sense of compassion and the need to do something.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

James 1:27<\/strong>, \u201cReligion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and keep oneself from being polluted by the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to delve deeper beyond the intellectual understanding of caring for others. God loves us with an indescribable passion not because we deserve it but because He knows we don\u2019t. His love for us is driven by compassion for who we are, not admiration for who we are. He understands that we can never repay Him for His investment in us. His heart is moved by our suffering and wondering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He needs nothing. It is His very nature to love us altruistically. He is the model for what we should aspire to when we engage others. Our reaction to others shouldn\u2019t be rules-based or environmentally conditioned but a visceral swell from deep within us. It should be a reaction too intense to control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Peter 3:8<\/strong>, \u201cFinally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is a lot to ask in this chaotic, busy world. We are constantly influenced by people whose agenda requires more time to decipher than we have. We go along to get along, to make it through the day. It is hard enough to show compassion for the ones we love; how do we extend that? How do we slow down our heads so that we can engage others, not just roll over them on our way to the next thing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCompassion costs. It is easy enough to argue, criticize, and condemn, but redemption is costly, and comfort draws from the deep. Brains can argue, but it takes heart to comfort.\u201d – Samuel Chadwick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, we don\u2019t eat the elephant in one bite. We have to decide who we want to be. The account of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32<\/strong>) has two storylines. The first one is the big one we all think about. It is how the father showed compassion for his son upon his return; it is easy to recognize and relate to. The second is subtle and closer to home (v. 28-30<\/strong>). The good son has little compassion for his brother because he feels he has stayed behind and supported his father after the prodigal son left. The good son has this sense of righteous indignation that overshadows compassion. The father\u2019s compassion was splagchnizomai, while the good son\u2019s compassion was rules-based and pragmatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are we the father or the good son? Can we show compassion even when we have been taken advantage of, or do we have rules that we feel are reasonable and correct? To truly love those God has put in front of us is to scrap the rules. We all have a lot of rules. Many of those rules were taught to us by well-meaning individuals who didn\u2019t want to see others take advantage of us. The good son has a plausible argument, but his position lacks genuine compassion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ephesians 4:32<\/strong>, \u201cBe kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To love the way God intended us to love, we need first to have compassion for those God has sent our way. Like Christ, it can\u2019t be compassion just for their current situation, but compassion for their eternity. Once we start to see people as an extension of their eternal existence, we can start to look past who they are now. We start to see them as God sees them.  Loving someone you will spend in the presence of God for eternity is a lot easier than loving the person who can irritate you with just a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In life, it is the journey, not the destination. The destination is a gift through grace. The journey is all the beautiful things God has in store for us as He helps us help others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
