Look with Compassion

My dear son,

Look at the people you meet today with a merciful heart. Beyond noticing what they do well and judging their shortcomings, leave room to hear the circumstances of their lives.

Share the compassion you have received from your Father with your neighbors. When someone makes a mistake, ask what help is needed before looking down on them. You can speak honestly while still treating that person as precious.

I delight in mercy and show mercy to those who practice it. Do not turn someone's weakness into something to watch or discuss for amusement. Let warm eyes and gentle words help you honor one person today.

With all my love,
Your Father

Matthew 5:7
