Practices for the First Essential Habit: Heal

  1. Stay deeply connected to compassion
  2. Say yes to strangers
  3. Do what is within our power to do
  4. See with the heart

How do you intentionally act with compassion?

How can you say yes to strangers?

Does somebody near you, or on the edges of your life, need compassion: what is within your power to do?

Think about someone you may have judged harshly. If you look again with your eyes and your heart, what do you see?

I appreciated the sermon on Sunday. I especially connected with "do what is within you r power to do." I think often we limit God and ourselves by giving up because we cannot do "the end result" or "make it all better." But if we would do something, we could "make it some better." Instead, we do nothing and "make it no better."
