"What saves us from fear is not courage, but compassion."
Hubert Neth
I hate to speak for this great man, but what I heard him saying was this... When we are struggling personally, when we are broken, when we are a mess, you can't power yourself through it. The sacred act that saves us from ourselves is the act of caring for another. When I care for another, my mind is off of me and onto you. When I show compassion to another, my heart is no longer focused on myself, but is now moving towards another. My pain is swallowed up as I am lost in your pain.
Compassion save us from fear.
Something to think about.........
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
