RENAISSANCE FEBRUARY 2020

Editorial 6 Monthly Renaissance February 2020 And, of course, instances at which we need to show sympathy abound: Attending persistently to sick relatives and friends; treating pets and beasts of burden with utmost humaneness; doing whatever can be done for those afflicted with some calamity and praying to God if nothing else can be done; using our influence to help those in distress; not forsaking sinners for they need sympathy the most; treating those subservient to us especially servants with extreme kindness and affection; merely lending an ear to a person going through some agony; supporting the oppressed against the wicked; lending a hand to the old, the disabled and the handicapped; ignoring the weaknesses of others; welcoming guests wholeheartedly; tending vigilantly to plants … of course there is no end to this list. May God grant us the courage and will to overcome any shortcoming that we may have in being sympathetic. ______________
