A pastor, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers ahead of them on the golf course.
"What's with these guys?" the engineer fumed. "We have been waiting for over 15 minutes!"
"I don't know," the doctor chimed in, "But I've never seen such ineptitude!"
"Hey, here comes the greens keeper," the pastor said. "Let's ask him... Hey George! Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?"
The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime."
The group was silent for a moment.
"That's so sad," the pastor said. "I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight."
"Good idea," the doctor said. "And I'm going to contact my Ophthalmologist buddy to see if there's anything he can do for them."
The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"
How do you exercise compassion?
When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and enquired early after God. And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God their redeemer.
Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied unto him with their tongues. For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in his covenant.
But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up all his wrath. For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again. -Psalms 78:34
