Empathy


With understanding, I honor our common purpose.


When I encounter differing opinions or personal disputes, I choose to see beyond the outward appearance of conflict and notice the commonality. We all want the best for ourselves and those we love. I resist the impulse to take offense. Instead, I focus on God's unconditional love. Demonstrating love in my thoughts, words and actions, I see disagreements dissolve into empathy and understanding.


If mistakes have been made, I bless them and look for the lesson to be learned. My outlook remains positive. With God's unconditional love as my example, I honor my divine nature and the divine nature of all others.


For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.--Proverbs 2:6
