Jesus is the God of Israel who has come to his people. Jesus came because of love. The raising of the widow’s son demonstrates how Jesus loved people. Jesus saw and noticed the widow. Jesus saw and felt her pain. Jesus felt compassion. Jesus saw and moved toward her. Jesus came and helped. And the widow’s life was transformed. That is how we are to love others. Do we notice people around us? Do we feel any compassion for others? Do we reach out to the hurting to help?
