You are invited to attend our "LIVE/ZOOM" Sunday Worship Service on May 4, 2025, at our Chapel at Christ Church Unity 70 Colchester Street, Brookline, MA 02446.
The service will stream simultaneously on our ZOOM platform (see link below) and the lesson will wili focus on "Compassion" Please join us in looking ahead and using the "Gift of Compassion" in these difficult times.
I may struggle to feel compassionate, especially when I feel angry. If another’s hurtful words or hostile actions seem cruel or unjust, I may feel tempted to respond in kind. However, striking back does not end conflicts or heal relationships.
Instead, as I turn within and feel the Christ mind dissolve my anger, I feel calm. At those breakthrough moments, I remember anger doesn’t satisfy anyone or solve problems. Regardless of how justified I may feel expressing my upset, it is within my power to choose compassion instead.
I will not reciprocate others’ hostility. I will instead look beyond their anger to see their struggles. I need not approve their choices to see them as children of God today and every day.
Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.—Colossians 3:12
