Monday, February 25, 2013 - Compassion


As long as we remain on this earth, we will experience conflict and disagreement with others. We were not created to share the same point of view, but rather, to use these separate views for creativity and advancement. Helping another to feel good about their accomplishments when things have gone off course can be difficult as a parent, teacher, or an administrator.  Betty Clipman, acclaimed chorus director of Sweet Adelines International teaches that, "correction without compassion is brutality.” Our goal must be to help advance the other person, never to bring them down.

 

Jesus said to his disciples: “Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. – Luke 6:36
