The compassion essential for healing

Jesus' commands to "heal the sick" and "love thy neighbour" can't be separated.

Sharon Slaton Howell

A Man I know never lets a day go by without expressing kindness to at least one person. Once when he telephoned to thank me for something I had done, I protested that he shouldn't have gone to the trouble to call. "Oh, but we have to do these things!" he added quickly.

Many people might agree with my friend. They might feel that while there are things we can put off doing till another day, being loving to our fellowman should not be one of them.
