Having An Impact: Compassionate to Others

Being compassionate to others is not easy for anybody. Especially toward those who don’t agree or see “eye-to-eye” with you. It’s also difficult when you feel they don’t deserve the compassion.
 

Of course, perhaps I should define “Compassion”. I see it as having love and passion for the well-being of another. Having a tender heart. It's something that I've posted before. I'm not a fan of what is considered "tough love". Yes, I believe in doing things right. But that doesn't mean it should be done in a self-righteous, pious behavior. That won't win affection or real respect from others. I don't want to be self-centered.
 

Yes, I want to have a true compassion toward others. That's how to have a true impact! (John 13:34-35)

~Matt
