A smoldering wick was useless for giving light. These can
mean people considered useless by the world. In Matthew 12, we read Jesus saw a
man who had a withered hand. And in order to accuse Him Pharisees, asked Him,
"Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" Jesus answered, “How much more
valuable is a person than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the
Sabbath." Here, Jesus shows tender compassion towards the lost and
restores people not hurting them. As written in Matthew 12:7, Jesus desires compassion
and not condemnation. In Psalm 53: 6, God restores his people and people
rejoice. So, we may feel that we are all alone, lost, even there are people who
doesn’t understand us, be encouraged today because Jesus came to restore us.
