The Human side of God

Our belief system helps us to have an awareness of the Presence of God.
Depending on how we live and practise our Faith we will keep this awareness of God alive in the events that happen to us each day.
The Saints, those who learned to develop a close relationship with God,  constantly remind us in their writings of how compassionate God truly is towards us.
This is the hallmark of a human soul, Compassion / the ability to reach out and care for others. 
When we are able to be compassionate towards others we find ourselves developing a human heart, devoid of judgement and condemnation.  We grow in love.
This is the Human side of God, portrayed by the life of Christ.  He cares / He weeps / He loves.
At times, we may find our belief in God to appear abstract.  No worries.
Take a moment to dwell on the life of Christ and His willingness to give ALL for us. Could there be a stronger, more human Love?
