Jesus was moved with compassion for the people so he
inquired from his disciples how they can get food for the
crowd. But because they were at the mountain side, far
from town, there was no way they could get food for the
crowd. There after the disciples noticed a little boy with
“five barely loaves of bread and two fishes”.

the food and it multiplied and went round and everyone
ate to their full. About 5000 men were fed apart from
children!

THE GOOD SAMERITAN


Once upon a time, a man was traveling from Jerusalem to
Jericho, suddenly robbers attacked him, took away his
belongings and left him badly wounded.
As he laid by the road side, a “Priest” came by but instead
of helping the wounded man, the priest crossed to the
other side of the road and continued on his journey.
Shortly after a “Levite” also came along the same road
and instead of offering assistance, he avoided the injured
man just as the priest did and went his way.
Thereafter came a “Good Samaritan” traveling along the
same road but unlike the other two (the priest and Levite),
he felt “Compassion” for the wounded man. So he went to
the man, bandaged his wounds then carefully placed the
man on his donkey and took him to an INN (hospital).
The next day, the Samaritan continued his journey but
before leaving, he paid the Inn keeper( doctor) and asked
him to take care of the injured man while promising to pay
any other expenses upon his return.
When the injured man recovered, he was amazed at the
act of COMPASSION and KINDNESS shown by the good
Samaritan.
