compassionate - Helping the Hurting

For me, compassion is that spontaneous feeling of wanting to make things right for the other person, wether they deserve it or not. It is what Jesus felt fo me that made Him want to die in my place so that I may live, even when I was as yet not made. It is not pity. It is overwhelming love that makes Jesus anticipate my needs, my pains, my helplessness and makes Him to provide, heal, save and nurture me in good times and in bad times. It is what He commands me to have when He said, ' love your enemies and pray for those who use you badly' perhaps because He knows that the enemy behaves that way because they too are trapped in sin and shame and ignorance and self- hate. Compassion is selflessness. It is avery difficult thing to practice in our present age unless one actually surrenders to the Holy Spirit.
