Our compassionate God, revealed by Jesus
Compassion: is Solidarity, Oneness It is Not a gesture of sympathy or pity to those who have failed to make it. It is a “Coming down” into human misery, pitching our tent and loving it through. It is a consciousness of being part of humanity, an awareness of the oneness of the human race. It is a participating in the pain and misery
The cross remains THE revelation of God’s unconditional, compassionate love

And only then can we learn how to respect every person despite differences in ideas, colors, religions, culture etc. That is the gift the world longs for at this moment. ” (CLT)
