Wednesday 14 May

Acts 1:15-17,20-26, Ps 113, John 15:9-17

International day of the Family

Jesus commands us to love. He doesn’t ask, plead, suggest or explain he simply commands. He knows that love will work. Love changes everything and everyone – the givers, the observers and the receivers.

As Pope Benedict said in Deus Caritas Est “Love grows through love’. The only way to love is by loving and never stopping regardless of the pain or lack of return. Today let’s remember those who have loved us and reach out in love to those who we struggle with in our own or faith family. It will work.
