New Perspective

New Perspective
A guy was crossing the street to visit his neighbor. As he started to cross the street, a car was bearing down on him, so he stopped and backed up to the curb. The car stopped, so he started to cross, and the car started to move toward him. He changed direction and went back to the curb and the car moved toward him. Then he moved to run across the street and the car swerved in that direction. He moved left and the car moved left. He moved right and the car moved right. Finally he just stopped in the middle of the road. The car screeched to a stop right in front of him. He walked around to the driver’s window and the window rolled down. The man was surprised to see a squirrel behind the driver's wheel. The squirrel said, "I just wanted you to know what it feels like."
(From a sermon by David Dykes, The Rejected Stone, 8/20/2012)

Careful, Don’t Lose Your Empathy!
Contributed by Pastor Sam Georgis on Jan 15, 2023
People today are so unempathetic that we see people in trouble, we see people in distress, and we are so self-absorbed…so self-centered that all we care about is me, my and mine! but Jesus purchased us with His blood to be our Brother’s Keeper!
