No matter how low down you are; no matter what your disposition has been; you may be low in your thoughts, words, and actions; you may be selfish; your heart may be overflowing with corruption and wickedness; yet Jesus will have compassion upon you.

Just come at once. He is a faithful friend – a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
– Dwight L. Moody

God keeps all our tears in a bottle; so precious is the water that is distilled from penitent eyes; and because he will be sure not to fail, he notes how many drops there be in his register.

– Abraham Wright
Compassion

Were both the golden Indies mine, I’d give both Indies for a tear.

In any relationship, there will be frightening spells in which your feelings of love dry up. And when that happens you must remember that the essence of marriage is that it is a covenant, a commitment, a promise of future love. So what do you do? You do the acts of love, despite your lack of feeling. You may not feel tender, sympathetic, and eager to please, but in your actions you must be tender, understanding, forgiving and helpful. And, if you do that, as time goes on you will not only get through the dry spells, but they will become less frequent and deep, and you will become more constant in your feelings. This is what can happen if you decide to love.
– Tim Keller
Love | Marriage | Passion

– Richard J. Foster
Prayer | Passion

There is a third quality to friendship, and it is not as easy to put into a single word. The right word, literally, is ‘sympathy’ – sym-pathos, common passion. This means that friendships are discovered more than they are created at will.

Friendship | Passion

People may excite in themselves a glow of compassion, not by toasting their feet at the fire, and saying: “Lord, teach me compassion,” but by going and seeking an object that requires compassion.

The Holy Spirit | Fire | Passion

A man in passion rides a horse that runs away with him.
– Thomas Fuller
Patience | Passion

When passion is on the throne reason is out of doors.
– Matthew Henry
Reasoning | Passion

For the soul of a person to be inflamed with passion for the living God, that person’s mind must first be informed about the character and will of God. There can be nothing in the heart that is not first in the mind. Though it is possible to have theology on the head without its piercing the soul, it cannot pierce the soul without first being grasped by the mind.
– R. C. Sproul
Passion | The Heart

O if once our hearts were but filled with zeal for God, and compassion to our people’s souls, we would up and be doing, though we could but lay a brick a day, and God would be with us.

Passion is the evil in adultery. If a man has no opportunity of living with another man’s wife, but if it is obvious for some reason that he would like to do so, and would do so if he could, he is no less guilty than if he was caught in the act.
– Augustine
Adultery | Sin | Passion

God keeps all our tears in a bottle; so precious is the water that is distilled from penitent eyes; and because he will be sure not to fail, he notes how many drops there be in his register. It was a precious ointment wherewith the woman in the Pharisee’s house (it is thought Mary Magdalene) anointed the feet of Christ; but her tears, wherewith she washed them, were more worth than her spikenard.
– Abraham Wright
Compassion

All other passions build upon or flow from your passion for Jesus. A passion for souls grows out of a passion for Christ. A passion for missions builds upon a passion for Christ. The most crucial danger to a Christian, whatever his role, is to lack a passion of Christ. The most direct route to personal renewal and new effectiveness is a new all-consuming passion for Jesus. Lord, give us this passion, whatever the cost!
– Wesley L. Duewel
Passion

Let the current of your being set towards God, then your life will be filled and calmed by one master-passion which unites and stills the soul.
