COMPASSIONWe are created in God's image, so just as Jewish tradition teaches that God has compassion for us, we need to act with compassion to others.
1. I curse the soil because of humankind, For the inclinations of humankind’s heart is evil from its youth; I will never strike again down all life as I have just done. Genesis 8:21 2. Be filled with compassion for one another And the Holy One will be filled with compassion for you Genesis Rabbah 33:3 3. God surrounds you with kindness and mercy... God executes righteous acts and judgments for all who are wronged. Psalms 103: 4,6 4. I, the Eternal, act with Kindness, Justice, And equity In the world. For in these I delight, declares the Eternal. Jeremiah 9:23 5. The merciful person does good for his or her own soul. Proverbs 11:17 |
