I will open up the way before Thee...
Proverbs 4:12

Compassion?
I believe my problem is not so much that I lack compassion. It is that my compassion is weak. Very weak. For how can it be considered strong if it does not move me to radical action, or, for that matter, change my definition of radical?
Child of My love, fear not the unknown morrow, Dread not the new demand life makes of thee; Thy ignorance doth hold no cause for sorrow Since what thou knowest not is known to Me.
Thou canst not see today the hidden meaning Of my command, but thou the light shalt gain; Walk on in faith, upon My promise leaning, And as thou goest all shall be made plain.
One step thou seest-then go forward boldly, One step is far enough to faith to see; Take that, and thy next duty shall be told thee, For step by step thy Lord is leading thee.
Stand not in fear thy adversaries counting, Dare every peril, save to disobey; Thou shalt march on, all obstacles surmounting, For I, the Strong, will open up the way. Wherefore go gladly to the task assigned thee, Having my promise, needing nothing more Than just to know, where'er the future find thee, In all thy journeying I go before. -Anonymous
