How do we get out of the constant cycle of comparison?
True compassion is not just having a feeling, but doing something about that feeling.
Five ways Jesus can teach us to show compassion when we want to be critical.
What we’ve experienced is that living by religious rules is a very tempting way to avoid facing the insecurities in our hearts.
Spirituality and the Bible can help us redefine what being vulnerable should look like, and show us how it can lead to great power.
We can find joy in serving God and others. No matter what’s going on in life, our home life improves when we look outward instead of inward.
When we live with a genuine faith in God, we are not afraid to dream, imagine, sacrifice, or take risks. Our confidence is in the God of Scripture, whose presence and power flow through those who have chosen to believe.
Faith makes the impossible possible. Our relationship with God should produce the kind of faith that moves mountains.
Being vulnerable with God means being comfortable with our weaknesses because we know God’s power is greater than any of our weaknesses or flaws and that all our strength and courage comes from God. There’s freedom knowing that God loves us no matter what and can make us strong despite our weaknesses or insecurities.
Compassion is having concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others. It is not simply feeling bad for what someone else is going through, but taking action to help and love them.
Redefining our view of Jesus should include not only identifying compassion in his life, but exhibiting compassion in our own.
