We must learn to talk to one another, to tell who we are, and why we are the way we are, and who we hope to become.  Tolerance grows in our Body because we have had honest glimpses of those inner men.  Sensitized through the work of the Holy Spirit, we become able to breathe deep draughts of compassion.  Our hearts become opened to Him, and opened to one another, and His love is able to flow through  us to our brothers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some have not developed the best way to share their thoughts and feelings.  Do not be discouraged or upset with them.  We are to be patient.  We are to ask the Holy Spirit to see them through His eyes and heart.
