In a time I've been thinking about the four facets of love- emotion, actions, forgiveness, and rejection of pride, I got to review one of the passages where Jesus demonstrates His love for us. At a sad moment in His life He is there for the people. We do things that grieve God, and He lets us because he wants us to realize our shortcomings and seek His ways.


Matthew 14 Herod believed in resurrection, he thought John the Baptist had come back from the dead. Although fear kept him from having John killed, a moment of lust or severe emotion caused him to swear an oath which he then honored and had John killed. Jesus heard about John and went to a
secluded place.
Jesus and John were related, His mother and John's mother were relatives. It is
possible they played together as children. Even though Jesus knew John would die and how, the news
that it actually happened was probably very distressing. He went to a secluded place to pray. The very
nature of man caused John to be killed, and yet people (the nature of man) followed Him looking for
healing from sickness.
In the midst of great sorrow He felt compassion, He then fed them as knowing
they were hungry and food was not readily available. He met the needs they brought to Him and met
the needs they hadn't even considered. What an awesome God.
After ministering to these needs He went to be alone with His Father. Meanwhile His disciples were crossing the sea in the middle of the night in a storm, as fear gripped them He went to them. Being a man the sea provided a barrier to the disciples understanding. They might have thought that if Jesus was there they would be safe, and probably regarded leaving Him on a distant shore as a surety that they were on their own. God came to them, when they needed Him.
So in three acts Jesus after being reminded of our nature through John's death met the needs the
people brought to Him, met the needs they hadn't thought of (fed them), and went to His disciples when
they felt alone, isolated from God and helpless. When they realized who He was they worshiped Him.
