Jesus Wept
Do You?
Do You?
Empathy is something we learn as we be as Jesus. The more you notice the suffering of others, the more you can comfort them. And as you comfort them, you will be comforted when you suffer.
The big question for many is, why do we suffer? The answer is that this planet, this existence, this life is for us each to learn how to love. As we learn how to love, we make mistakes. And we call those mistakes sin, as they do harm to others, intentionally or not. Without free agency, we cannot love, for love is freely chosen. With free agency, we will make mistakes, and as others judge our mistakes as evil, they call that sin, and that is how sin gets into this world. Much suffering is of our own choosing, as we judge others intentions wrongly as sin, when it was truly only a mistake as they too are trying to learn how to love.
