Jesus said,
"Be compassionate as your Heavenly
Father is compassionate."
Luke
6:36
You can give only according to
the measure you receive. And you
receive according to the measure
of your self-giving. Ask to be given
the understanding of those who have
not yet set out on the way of the
Father's loving purpose for them.
They suffer an unhappiness at the
heart's centre which the committed
do not know unless they care and
pray. And that unhappiness not infrequently
issues in hostility to all that
they do not understand in the commitment
of others and also to the principles
of that commitment.
Our loving Holy Spirit, who penetrates
the hearts and minds of all the
Father's children sees and knows
all these things and seeks to encourage
and strengthen in the way all who
look for a better way in life and
living. And He uses the compassionate
heart and the mind orientated to
the Father's service to enlighten
and inform the mind of the uncommitted
regarding the Father's loving purpose
for themselves. And My Presence,
which is love in action, fills the
heart and mind as it is welcomed
and addressed and received in the
deepest parts of being.
