In the passage, it describes how Jesus empathized with a widow's sorrow and shared in her grief. Similarly, Jesus also empathizes with our pain, sharing in our suffering and sorrow. Do we realize that Jesus sees us when we struggle with our problems?
The entire process of worshiping, reading, hearing, and learning the Bible is about getting to know who Jesus is. When we talk about learning the Word in church, we're talking about gaining knowledge about Jesus. Life in the church is about worshiping the Jesus we know.
The way the "holy people of God" in the church treat other "holy people of God" is akin to how they treat Jesus. Our attitude toward God is reflected in how we treat others.
