Exercised Compassion

Angel Raphael channeled through Adria Estribou

This is Raphael, Angel Raphael. So we speak next about how to manage sadness that arises. It's a tinge of compassion, but also that deep sorrow that comes on you here of another's loss. In other words, if there are those "misfortunate"—where something happens in their life that you feel unjust or unfair, and you know it's not your place to go ride in and save them. Or perhaps you're in another country or in another circumstance where you feel you cannot make change for that person as unjust as it is. What do you do with this overwhelming sense of sorrow, of lack of wholeness, this feeling of lack of wholeness in how the world sometimes operates towards one or another of your friends, your fellow people on Earth, whether you know them or not, that you feel in your heart space that you have love for them, regardless of whether you have met in person.

Come into your heart again. This is such a beautiful hub and central place for so many transformations. Come into your heart and bring that person with you. You can ask them gently if they'd like to come.

And you say to them in this energetic space of your heart: "You are not alone. I love you in this." There may be thousands of miles separating you and that person. They may never know your name, or feel your touch. But to bring them into the space of your heart in their time of trial and say to them: "You are not alone. I love you in this," you have done the best service. Because you have not let yourself slip into helplessness. And you have not let them go by in their suffering unknown, unnoticed.

And for those of you who are so inclined, there's a third part in this. The first part is noticing the suffering. The second part is in your heart space offering your own love for that being. And the third part is to ask your angels: "if there is a way that I can palpably help this person or this group of people, please show that to me. And if there is not, may I have full trust in the wings and the hearts of their own guides and angels to guide them through this magnanimously."

Sometimes in the next hours and days, you will see reason for action. And sometimes you will feel lighter. And when you feel lighter, you know this is not my burden, this life right now. And yet I have offered my grace as much as I can towards this fellow human, fellow walker of the soils of Earth. I have gifted my love. I have seen them. And that is the type of compassion that will work in these times that will not burn you out that will not keep you in a puddle under a rock, not wanting to see any more suffering of any of those outside yourself.

So come into this more exercised compassion, where you get to move in it and with it and be with people in love. Not shrink from the pain of the world but also understand that most of the pain of the world is not your burden. Most of it. Some parts are. Some parts you have been called here to notice to change. So ask your angels to help you see that—where there are places you can influence change. Without remorse to walk forward in your own health and vitality and also reaching out towards others when you can. And when you can feel light and free, that all of those souls that you cannot reach just now in this moment this hour, in this life, that they have the guidance and the angels with them as well to navigate this in the best way possible for their soul, for their learning, for their growth, now.
