Day 21 of the Omer, Malchut of Tiferer: Nobility in Compassion
Psalm One Nineteen:161-168, Revelation Three:21

Psalm One Nineteen:161-168
161Rulers persecute me without cause, but my heart trembles at your word. 162I rejoice in your promise like one who finds great spoil. 163I hate and detest falsehood but I love your law. 164Seven times a day I praise you for your righteous laws. 165Great peace have those who love your law, and nothing can make them stumble. 166I wait for your salvation, LORD, and I follow your commands. 167I obey your statutes, for I love them greatly. 168I obey your precepts and your statutes, for all my ways are known to you.

Revelation Three:21
21To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

Examine the dignity of your compassion. For compassion to be complete (and enhance the other six aspects of compassion) it must recognize and appreciate
individual sovereignty. It should boost self-esteem and cultivate human dignity. Both your own dignity and the dignity of the one benefiting from your compassion.

Is my compassion expressed in a dignified manner? Does it elicit dignity in others? Do I recognize the fact that when I experience compassion as dignified it will reflect reciprocally in the one who receives compassion?

Exercise for the day: Rather than just giving charity, help the needy help themselves in a fashion that strengthens their dignity.

Love always, Walter and Debbie

Do this, as King David inspired writes, as Ekklesia today experience all over the world -

"Rulers persecute", and religion persecutes, mayors, governors, pastors, priests, etc etc etc persecute without cause , all who stand for TRUTH.

"I wait for your salvation (DAILY)(God's Kingdom always, always seeking), LORD, and I follow your commands. I obey your statutes, for I love them greatly. I obey your precepts and your statutes, for all my ways are known to you.."

"Create in me a clean heart , of God, and renew a right spirit within me...." (the ONLY way to be saved, sanctified, set apart (holy) today) ....

Nothing to do with charity in Scripture, nor dignity. (humanistic words, I think) ....
Instead, as the Father's Word Directs us, practice true righteousness, and in Him abide, with the gift of Him, Jesus, being our strength and holiness and peace, rest, joy, in Christ Jesus.
