When the people heard of this, they followed him on foot from the towns. When he landed, he saw a large crowd, and he felt compassion for them, healing their sick. Pray that we all— you, us, our team here, and the Joshua Fund— would be moved with compassion for hurting people, those who don't know the love, hope, and healing of Jesus.
