Yes! I love looking at this story through recovery tinted lenses. I have learned that showing compassion is not always an automatic response for all people, but for some reason those that have seen struggle and pain are a little more willing to offer it up. I’ve been going to AA now for a few months and have completely reconnected with my faith. The story of the Good Samaritan was one that I was taught at a young age but I love hearing it again, and it aligns so much with the principles of the program of service and helping others. Thank you for this. It was just what I needed to read this morning ❤️
Oh this makes my heart smile. It’s been in the rooms of recovery that may faith has grown and my desire to more fully connect with God. The compassion felt there is truly remarkable.
