Does your compassion point to God's glory?

The story of the Good Samaritan is well known, both inside and outside church circles. Today the name "Samaritan" does not elicit the same reaction it would have gotten from a group of Jews in Jesus' day. However, it was this unlikely character, not the Jewish religious figures who proved to follow God's law to love those we encounter. Compassion, loving others, is a trait Jesus' disciples must demonstrate to point others to Him as the perfect provider of compassion.
