Simply Prayer: Living Compassionately

  • Monocacy Manor (former retreat center building) 395 Bridle Path Road Bethlehem PA 18017 (map)

God is referred to often as a God of compassion. We read in the Scriptures how Jesus was a man of compassion. We have read many passages about the love of God for us. Jesus came to teach us how to live in this world. He saw, heard, taught, welcomed, healed, reached out, and forgave. Is Jesus asking the same of us? Are we prepared to “love one another as I have loved you?”
