Empathy is and always has been the heart of God. The very God that decided he should come close through his son, in order to walk in our shoes and be a faithful high priest. Empathy must be the goal of the believer.

From Series: "Heart Matters...How's Yours?"

It is often said that...the heart of the matter is actually a matter of the heart! In Matthew 15, Jesus says – ‘ ...the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander’. The heart is significant in influencing our lives and for that reason the bible has a lot to say about it.
