“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.” Col.3.12 “Conversations Within” ts 9/1/2019
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” Dalai Lama
Compassion is an expression of heartfelt mercy. Compassion loves mercy not simply because we know we need it, we also know that others need it as much as we. It is interesting that this is one of the few times we are encouraged to act on our feelings-those that move the soul to express kindness even when the other does not deserve it, hasn’t asked for it and probably don’t know that they need it.
