Ministering with Compassion: 

-The task may seem daunting, especially if those we minister to are experience a heavy trial. When there is a way to relieve suffering, we do our best to help. 

-As we come to know the Savior, we will better understand how He extends compassion to all who come unto Him.  How can we develop this Christlike attribute in our lives?

1. Study accounts where the Savior demonstrated compassion. 

2. Recall times when others have comforted or supported us in our trials.

3. Fast and pray for more compassion and ask for guidance. 

4. Strive to get to know others and understand their situations better. 

5. Practice noticing the circumstances of others by asking yourself questions like "what might be hard in that person's life right now?" 

6. Practice recognizing when you minimize or dismiss someone else's suffering.
