“The wellspring of compassion flows from the heart of God, encircles us all, and flows back to God: the circle of life. In this time so full of hurt and hate, compassion can make a world of difference. Seek the grace to know God’s tender loving mercy, and practice it with great generosity. Compassion, God’s tender loving mercy, will make a world of difference.” Br. Curtis Almquist encourages us to discover and practice compassion: God's compassion for us; ours for ourselves, others, and even for God.
