Jesus Truly Cares

"As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it"
Luke 19:41

During WWII, Winston Churchill was in conference with officials in Downing Street when an air raid occurred. They heard a bomb drop and explode nearby. It had clearly fallen in one of the poorer sections of London. At once, Churchill ordered his car to take him to the scene. When they arrived, the sight was heartbreaking…desolation everywhere…homes destroyed, people injured and killed. The people crowded around Churchill’s car and began to cheer. Overcome by this reception, Churchill openly wept. After a bit, a voice from the crowd was heard: “See! He’s crying. He really cares about us.â€
