Jesus said to his Disciples, "I say to you who are listening, Love your enemies………..Be compassionate as your Father is compassionate….the amount you measure out is the amount you will be given back
Luke 6

To open the heart in compassionate reaction to others is to invite Our loving Presence to preside over your heart, inform your mind and direct your will: no matter if the understanding is small or great. |And according to the size and frequency of the compassionate thought and action does capacity grow for the service of your Heavenly Father in friends and neighbours and in the Father's beloved needy children in the world.

Address yourself daily to your Heavenly Father regarding the service He requires you to do for Him each day and walk sensitively throughout each day expecting His direction and responding as it shown to you.

Never allow the orientation of your concern for others are conditioned by your own preference, and expect to be directed to giving and self-giving in areas you would not have chosen. Especially practise generosity towards those whom you find difficult or who dislike you.

If you consider these things and live by them increasingly and steadfastly you will yourself receive the unlimited joy and blessings which the Father seeks to bestow on all His beloved children.
