You CAN make a Difference in the World Today: Ask Johnny Yousef: Compassion the Great Need of the Hour
When we flip through the channels of headlines, scroll through the social media posts, there are countless different events taking place: celebrities in the news, entertainment, and humor. There are also injustices, travesties, and needs expressed. When we see something, do we respond initially with shock and possibly pity that something could happen so terribly wrong to another human being; or does it go another step further. Often times when the word compassion is used to express someone’s feelings, it is actually pity. When we respond to these emotions by resolving to just respond, but to act, then we have entered into compassion.
In regards to the recent 21 Christians that were beheaded on the shores of Tripoli, strictly because of their faith in Jesus Christ, that is exactly how Johnny Youssef responded, with compassion. Unable to sleep, thinking about the families of these 21 men; as a man from Egypt himself, he resolved to do something about it. Johnny posted a video to social media expressing to the world how this reality impacted him. He shares his own invitation for others to help support him in his response.
