Sharing Sympathy

As bad news is broadcast everywhere, most of us are hungry for a little dose of good news. Would you be willing to be a good news bearer? Where there is sadness, bring joy. Where there is discouragement, offer encouragement. The Apostle Peter shared these words: “Finally, all of you live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble” (1 Peter 3:8). Consider today who needs a dose of sympathy and share it with them.
