Compassion in a dictionary would say it's a feeling of pity.  But Jesus' acts of compassion shows us that there's more to that.  So, compassion that's in tune with Jesus, would be loving God as much one claims to love Him.  It becomes an urge to act upon this love for Him. One cannot claim to love God and reject the nearby manifestation of that love to his brothers; can?  We're not to bring perfection trough helping others, but we will definetly bring love (light).  So, compassion must somewhere glorify Jesus, and hey, we are glorified with Him!
