The Gospel today opens with a simple but deeply moving line: “When Jesus saw the crowds, His heart was moved with pity for them.” Jesus looks at people who are tired, searching, wounded, and wandering, and His heart breaks open with compassion.

Before there is sending, there is seeing. Before the disciples do anything for Jesus, Jesus first sees them, loves them, and calls them.
