Pearl 5
In the gardens of the soul does the Master speak, saying:
“I am compassionate,
Bearing in my soul the weight of imperfection,
Seeing in others the reflection of myself,
To be in them and they in me,
The shadows of each the other,
Finding within, the things most common,
Revealing the likeness of greater things.
I am compassionate,
Ever seeking to understand,
Reaching always for deeper wisdom,
Being quick to love and gently hold,
And in my heart but soft enfold
Both saint and sinner,
To make as one with God.
I am compassionate,
Bringing light in place of darkness,
Joy in place of tears,
Hope in place of despair,
And wisdom in place of hurt;
Seeking not to judge or find unworthy
But seeking only to forgive and gently heal.
I am compassionate,
Greeting all with a gentle approbation,
Being in my soul the one who knows,
Seeing the world for what it is,
Yet guided within to make it better,
Reaching forth with gentle hands
To change the world forever.
I am compassionate,
Dressed in grace and kindly manner,
Seeking to rescue and uplift,
Striving to undo and restore,
Guiding the mind to some greater understanding,
Laboring beside the God of Heaven,
To touch the heart of Man.”
