Store up for yourselves treasures in Heaven
where moth and rust cannot destroy and thieves cannot break in and steal

Compassion

“Take a look at a rose. Is it possible for the rose to say, ‘I’ll offer my fragrance to good people and withhold it from bad people’? Or can you imagine a lamp that withholds its rays from a wicked person who seeks to walk in its light? And observe how indiscriminately a tree gives its shade to everyone, good and bad, young and old, high and low; to animals and humans and every living creature - even to the one who seeks to cut it down. This is the first quality of compassion - its indiscriminate character.”
Anthony DeMello

“I make the rain and the sun to fall on the Godly and the ungodly.”

Yes, a day of judgement is coming, when Jesus will come in power and glory. For now we are living in the age of Grace - the greatest and purest and all encompassing grace and compassion in the whole universe, that of our Creator. Now is the day of salvation. Today is the day that forgiveness is being offered. Don’t throw this opportunity away!
