Abraham of the day - It is a wonderful thing to help others, but you must do it from your position of strength and alignment
When you are feeling the discomfort from seeing other people in a lackful or needy situation, and you decide to help them from your place of discomfort, no lasting value ever occurs, for two important reasons: first, you are not in alignment with the Energy of your Source, and so you have no real value to give; and second, your attention to their need only amplifies their need.
Of course, it is a wonderful thing to help others, but you must do it from your position of strength and alignment, which means you must be in alignment with their success as you offer assistance, and not in alignment with their problem.
When your awareness of their situation makes you uncomfortable and you offer help to make them feel better and to make yourself feel better, you are not in the Vortex and you are not helping. When you feel an inspired eagerness to offer something because you want to participate in their happy, successful process, your attention to their success harmonizes with the point of view of your Source; and the infinite resources of the Universe are at your disposal. And that does help.

So true brother! SO many people confuse the definition of Love and Compassion with something as "Holy" in every situation. No! True compassion always only reflects that what has to be SEEN! This sometimes includes pain! Feeling sorry is not an act of Love or Compassion, it is just a feeling of one's separation from Source, where all has its reason and divine purpose. Peace bro and thank you for this!
Thank you for your positive words. I appreciate your interaction here. It can be hard for people to understand this idea, but as you say ALL has its reason and divine purpose, so better to hold that higher vibration of love :) Peace to you brother.
