The dictionary defines "compassion" as "deeply sympathizing with the suffering and sorrow of others."
... We know the Lord is a merciful one because He sent His Son, Jesus, into the world to save sinners... and He Himself bore our sins...🤔
... In the past... Mother Teresa, living in the slums of India, took the suffering of those who had lost hope and were living in despair as her own, and, like Christ, made sacrifices to help them regardless of religion, and cared for them until the very end. This was surely an example of Christ's mercy.

... "And so you may become children of your Father in heaven."
... That's what I'd like to be called. 😃
Shalom.
