Friday Food is just a little something to encourage you along the way. Looking for more inspiration? View the entire Friday Food series here.
Welcome to Friday Food! A little bit of food for your soul…every Friday. For the next few months, we are looking at “Downloads from Heaven”. In these “downloads” we are contemplating what it would be like if we got a message from God (however you understand God). We will be exploring messages from God about pain and suffering and healing and blessing and love and peace other topics too! When you read these “downloads” you will notice that they are in quotes. This is to help you think from your heart NOT your head. Don’t get caught up in whether or not God, (however you understand God) said these things. Just let them speak to your heart. I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below. Here is today’s download:
Overwhelming Compassion
When your compassion for others seems to overwhelm you, then you have a glimpse of how much I love you. Thank you for your compassion, for your love for others, and for sharing in compassion with me. Continue to serve those in need and be present to them. Show my love which is powerful and overflows in the world. Let it flow freely through you and in you. If you feel pain, it is the redemption of your wounds. Welcome to redemption and healing. Let love flow, let wounds be healed, let me turn your sorrow to joy. You have entered the fullness of my work in you an in the world.
Ponder
Sometimes when we love and care for others it is painful. It is sometimes difficult to offer someone love and help only to have them reject it. But that does not mean it should not be offered just because it is painful or rejected. Like God (however, you understand God) we are to offer love and compassion without attachment to the outcome. This is divine and holy work and the outcome can’t be fully known by us even if it seems to be rejected. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
