Saturday’s crowd in Toledo, about 5,100 in attendance. I can only capture about ¼ of the entire crowd with my camera.
Compassion/Kindness
Compassion is sensing the distress of others, empathizing with them, and reaching out to them in specific ways to assist in alleviating their need. A godly, Christ-centered man must include compassion as a quality of his busy, success-oriented lifestyle. If you are married, strive to have compassion for your wife and children.
1. Our model for compassion is God himself.
Psalm 72:12–13 For he will deliver the needy when he cries for help, the afflicted also, and him who has no helper. He will have compassion on the poor and needy, and the lives of the needy he will save. (NASB)
Lamentations 3:21–23 This I recall to my mind, therefore I have hope. The LORD’s lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. (NASB)
Matthew 14:14 When He went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and felt compassion for them and healed their sick. (NASB)
Deuteronomy 30:3; Psalm 25:6; 51:1; Isaiah 49:10; 54:10; Micah 7:18–19; Matthew 15:32; 20:34; Luke 7:13; 10:33
2. Compassion for others is required.
Zechariah 7:9 This is what the LORD Almighty said: “Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another.” (NIV)
Colossians 3:12–14 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. (NIV)
Proverbs 29:7; Philippians 2:1–3
3. Compassion must be expressed in tangible ways, not just talk or good intentions. Those who are able should share materially with others.
Proverbs 19:17 If you help the poor, you are lending to the LORD—and he will repay you! (NLT)
Psalm 41:1 Blessed is the one who considers the poor! In the day of trouble the LORD delivers him. (ESV)
1 John 3:17 If we are rich and see others in need, yet close our hearts against them, how can we claim that we love God? (GNT)
Proverbs 11:25; Matthew 25:35–36; Luke 3:11; James 2:15–16
Biblical Narratives
• David to Saul, 1 Samuel 23:21
• David to Mephibosheth, 2 Samuel 9
• Jonah’s need, Jonah 4
• Nehemiah to Jerusalem, Nehemiah 1
• Jesus, Matthew 14:14; 15:32; 20:34; Mark 1:40–42

Practical Steps
• Get your family involved in volunteer work for needy people. Make a list of those you know who are hurting; do something tangible to help.
• Study the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37), and write out ten specific applications reflecting present-day needs around you.
• List the number of times in the Gospels something is mentioned or modeled about compassion.
• Get involved in the lives of needy people through ministries such as Christmas shoe boxes or Angel Tree. Consider sponsoring a child through organizations such as Compassion International or Samaritan’s Purse.
• In showing compassion to your children, remember their age and the need to see things from their point of view. How can you show compassion in language they will understand?
• Make a list of coming events in your child’s life when you will need extra compassion (start of school, new baby coming, fear of illness, losing a game in sports, etc.).

The setting sun behind this small church was the perfect setting, a moment that just had to captured.
Well, once both boys are off to college, we know who will take their spot at the dinner table. Such self control for a very hungry beagle!

Sorry for the ugly translation, I guess there's something wrong...
"I am positive that my weight is somehow fundamental in determining the balance between Earth and the Moon.
If I gain a little more kilos, I myself could cause tides, while moving on Earth's surface.
I know it would be freakin' fantastic to have some kind of an atmosphere, and an escape-velocity close to that of Jupiter...and then I'd be able to attract objects, people and even dogs, all of them cheerfully floating around me..
It's too bad that I must fit into my own clothes, and that's the society's fault.
One day we will smash the System..
'till that day, diet..."
Sono sicura che la mia massa dia un contributo non indifferente nella determinazione del centro di massa del sistema terra-luna.
Se metto su altri kili potrei io stessa dare luogo a delle maree mentre mi sposto sulla superficie terrestre.
Certo sarebbe fantastico avere una mia atmosfera e una velocità di fuga come quella di giove, trattenere attorno a me oggetti, persone e magari cani, tutti festosamente orbitanti.
Purtoppo però entrare nei pantaloni rientra ancora fra le mie priorità, per colpa della società che ci ingabbia.
Un giorno sovvertiremo il Sistema.
Fino ad allora, dieta.
la dieta è stata abbandonata. domani domani, come la rivoluzione.
