Endurance in Compassion: Caring for Orphans and Widows

📖 Introduction

Endurance is more than just holding on through difficult times; it’s about persistent commitment, especially when it comes to caring for the vulnerable among us. In the Bible, God consistently calls His people to care for orphans and widows — two groups historically marginalized and in need of special protection. This calling requires endurance because compassionate service can often be challenging, tiring, and discouraging.

Caring for others isn’t merely an act of kindness — it is a reflection of God’s heart. His steadfast love never gives up, and through endurance, believers are invited to imitate that unwavering love. Over the next five days, we'll explore Scripture encouraging us to persist in faith-fueled compassion for those most in need. We will reflect on the power of endurance when serving orphans and widows and learn how God strengthens us in times of fatigue and frustration.

Each day, you will encounter Scripture passages paired with powerful devotional reflections, thought-provoking questions, and prayer. The goal is to equip you with practical spiritual tools to live out persistent compassion, mirroring God's patience, love, and endurance through your care and advocacy. May this study deepen your understanding of enduring love and embolden your heart to keep pressing forward as a faithful caregiver.
