Clothe yourself with compassion.

II Corinthians 1:3 tells us that God is the Father of compassion. And just like new clothes, we are to put on His character of compassion, encouragement and consolation. This is echoed in Colossians 3:12 which urges all Believers to “clothe yourselves with compassion.” For when we are covered with Christ’s example, what people see is sympathy & empathy shining forth, not judgment. And this then allows us to care for those whose lives are hurting and broken without criticism. For Godly character is merciful without prejudice.
