Boundaries in Caring
No one showed more care for people than Jesus. He healed, taught and spent time mentoring His closest disciples while on earth. Jesus’ three years of active ministry seem like a complete whirlwind. But was it? Despite the constant demands on Jesus, He often slipped away by Himself to pray. In our desire to care for others, we also need to know how to set boundaries. Allan Beeber has learned how to do this while caring for an autistic family member.

Sometimes, it is okay to say “no.” At times, we need to find the balance between our needs and the needs of others. Jesus experienced this. When He heard about the death of John the Baptist, Jesus tried to withdraw to a solitary place. But this time, the crowd followed. He had compassion on them and miraculously fed more than 5,000. But afterward, Jesus knew what He needed: to go up on a mountain to be alone and grieve before God. Jesus was intentional in how He cared for others and about finding times to be refreshed. We can learn from Jesus’ example by making time for both others and ourselves.

Compassion is a powerful word. It goes deeper than showing sympathy for a person's pain. Compassion drives you to action. Each of these five devotionals contains a short audio message (1-2 minutes). The guests share about hearing from God, encouraging others, loving unconditionally, and proper boundaries. By the end of the five days, you should have a stronger sense of how to love with compassion.
