Observations from the Text:
Jesus went to all towns, not just some, not just the “nice ones” (v. 35)
He saw and had compassion on the crowds (v. 36)
We’re now the ones charged with being his workers (v. 38)

Jesus had compassion for the sick, the poor, the forgotten, the many times ignored. He showed this compassion to the woman at the well, the man with leprosy, the blind man, and so many others that otherwise would’ve never been acknowledged.
