The truly compassion person hands out compassion in free and generous doses rather then doling it out i careful, scanty amounts. God goes so far as to liken true compassion to a mother's compassion for her child. Who will rise in the middle of the night to hold a child with a fever? Who will run back to the store-for the fifth time that week -to pick up one more item for a child's school project? Who will reinforce discipline by firmly adhering to an unpopular restriction?
A mother whose heart is filled with compassion.
God showed his compassion to us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinner's.He nurses our wounds even when he isn't the one who caused them. When our body's drag and our spirit's sag, it takes a heart committed to God and the infiltrating power of the Holy Spirit to be compassionate.
It takes God-with the heart of a mother-to bring compassion to those who need it.
