Thirty Days of Gratitude: Compassion

Compassion is a feeling that cannot be forced or feigned; therefore, it is all the more valuable when given or received. In my life, I have been the recipient of great compassion on many occasions. Compassion is so beautiful because it is something we need desperately due to the circumstances which have created the need. My heart is burgeoning with gratitude for every ounce of it given to me by God through his divine grace.

I pray we may all acknowledge the beauty of compassion by reaching out to give it more freely as we go about daily life.

    This is such a beautiful post. I agree 100%. Compassion was one of Christ's most amazing attributes. To give compassion to another, means to show them love - to view them through the eyes of Christ, as a child of God. To not be judgmental of their shortcomings, but to give and show love as Christ does. Compassion is a gift - one that not everyone possesses. It's a beautiful thing to be thankful for. :)
