January 18, 2008 Does Jesus believe lowly people are valuable? How valuable?
Yes, Jesus believes in lowly people. He said that He comes for the people that need Him. I am thankful that Jesus loves us, even if we feel worthless to the world.

January 15, 2008 Define "Compassion"?
I think that compassion means that you care about someone and want to help that person when he or she is suffering. However, I think Jesus also shows us that you need to have compasion for people that you do not know as well. He helps people without asking or expecting something in return. I have one huge problem to overcome with regards to compasion. So many times people will come to you, begging for money, just to go around the corner and buy alcohol with the money. I've even noticed people selling food that they received after someone felt sorry for them to buy alcohol. What must you do in such a case"

I believe that Jesus is not just merely making a statement, but He is giving us a promise of eternal life as long as we follow His commandments.
