Compassion; it means “to suffer with.” Recall those times when you’ve been suffering, alone, and someone has come into that isolation with you. It’s powerful!
Now… don’t skip the fact that God became man so he could suffer with us. God is the prodigal son’s father, spending every day looking at the horizon with longing even though his son hurt him in such a concrete and direct way.
Want to be a more compassionate person? It’s really hard to love and accept others without first being able to love and accept ourselves. First, get to know God’s compassionate heart for you—then you’ll be able to show true compassion for others and have the grace to respond to a person in need.
