When you exercise actions of compassion toward people in need something wonderful happens. You begin to experience the love of God flow through you toward the person that you are helping. We think of it as an emotion called compassion, but it is not a human emotion it is the awesome presence of God's Holy Spirit. It is true love, God love. It is a love that meets all of the definitions of love in the Bible. It takes you into the deepest presence of God that a person can experience. It is knowing God in an intimate way by experiencing His love. This revelation of knowing God's love causes you to love Him in the deepest part of your being. Expressing God's love to people is expressing love to God; It is worshiping God in Spirit and Truth.

When we know God by experiencing His love
Something wonderful happens anew …
Our lives are changed, our desires are His
And deep within ourselves we love Him too.

From Him flows every blessing
From Him flows every need
From Him flows a love profound …
Once planted as a tiny seed.

Something wonderful truly happens
When we know love from He who is love
Something wonderful truly happens
When we know this Holy One above.
