Luke 19:41-42
As he drew near, he saw the city and wept over it, saying, “If this day you only knew what makes for peace–but now it is hidden from your eyes.”

Jesus shows us the face of a loving and caring God…weeping over the sight of all His children turning away from Him. They were not following His example of love, mercy, forgiveness and compassion. They just didn’t see…didn’t realize that Jesus was showing them the way that would lead them to peace and wholeness…if only they would follow Him. What would it take for them to realize how much God loves us? It would take responding to persecution with love, mercy, forgiveness and compassion…all the way to the cross. We are called to do the same.
