Dear Beloved,
Compassion is to share in the pain of others and having a desire to give a helping hand towards relieving the pain. It can also mean having mercy on someone and having an inner zeal towards helping out. Again, it means loving others at all times and without any conditions attached. Lastly, it could mean to have pity on someone who had deeply hurt you by just letting the person go easily, out of your own clear mind...
Going deeper, our God is full of compassion and had expressed this to us in diverse ways. Especially, sacrificing His one and only son to die for our sins and thereby saving all those that believe in His son from calamity and destruction. What a compassionate God. This is the reason why you and I are still living today. And so, is it too much for us to reciprocate this His deed?
No, it is not. We can sow this seed of compassion in the lives of the less privileged in our midst be it in Church, the society, community, etc. Our Lord and Saviour Jesus had said that whatever we did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of His, we did for Him, Matthew 25:40 .
Remain blessed,
Your beloved sister,
Ifeoma
