The Overlooked…
Today, let your heart slow down and remember those who feel forgotten. God’s love reaches through every wall, and sometimes, He uses us to deliver it.
Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering. Hebrews 13:3
It’s easy to forget those we never see—prisoners, the mistreated, the overlooked. But Hebrews 13:3 won’t let us look away. It calls us to remember—as if we were there, as if their pain was our own.
This isn’t about feeling sorry from a distance. It’s about entering into Christlike compassion—the kind that draws close, listens deep, and loves without conditions.
Jesus did this again and again. He moved toward the outcast. Sat with the shamed. Spoke life to the condemned. And now, He invites us to do the same.
You don’t need a prison key to bring freedom. A prayer. A Bible. A kind word. A moment of empathy. It all matters more than we know.
Today, someone feels forgotten. But they’re not forgotten by God. And maybe… you’re the reminder He wants to send.
Let your compassion reach through whatever walls life has built. Because every time we remember the forgotten, we reflect the One who never forgets us.
Heavenly Father, You never overlook the ones the world forgets. You drew close to the outcast, comforted the shamed, and brought light into locked places. Today, stir my heart to love like You do. Help me see those who are hurting, not as distant or different, but as brothers and sisters in need of grace. Teach me to pray with empathy, give with joy, and serve with courage. Let my compassion carry Your light through every wall this world has built. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
If the very Son of God endured death for my salvation, then my life must become a continuous act of worship, a willing surrender to His will, no matter the cost.
Walk daily with God at your side!
Love always
Ed 🙏🏼
