How do we know that God has compassion on us?

Answered in 3 sources

God's compassion is displayed in His willingness to save sinners and deliver them from darkness, as shown in the story of the demoniac.

The story of the demoniac in Mark 5 illustrates the depth of God's compassion. After being delivered from a legion of demons, the man was instructed by Jesus to return home and share the great things the Lord had done for him. This reflects God's heart to save those who are lost and downtrodden; it demonstrates that He sees us in our despair and acts to restore us to wholeness. God's compassion is fundamentally tied to His character as a loving Savior who seeks out His people to show mercy and grace, as found in Jeremiah 31:3, where we read of His everlasting love.
