April 17, 2007 Define Compassion? Compassion is an overwhelming love and understanding for another person. When Christ healed the lame and sick he felt such love for them he wanted to lighten their burden which he did for any who asked. It is a deep understanding of anothers emotion whether good or bad and a need to share in those emotions and alleviate the pain if possible. Ultimately, Compassion is Love. I have heard it said many times, and I agree with it, that Jesus is the epitome of Compassion. It is said that Compassion is what drove him everyday to complete miracles and to finally die for our sins so that we will not suffer. He shares in our joys and our sorrows and the greated gift we can give to him is to respond by sharing our Compassion with others.
