GOOD REQUIREMENTS

Hungry love doesn't last.

HOW difficult it is to love in an imposed way. I am one of the people who cannot understand arranged marriages between monarchs, for example. I understand that some agreements are necessary for the socio-cultural stability of a kingdom, but it is very difficult for me to understand that you cannot love the person you have by your side. Perhaps for this reason, European monarchs today follow the trend of marrying for love and not for the strategy of the kingdom, as Philip IV did with Leticia in Spain. God gave us the following order: Master, what is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said to him: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is similar: You shall love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets. The problem arises when we have to love those who have hurt us, that is, we must love our enemies. And this is also a divine mandate: But I say: love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! In this way, you will be acting as a true child of your Father who is in heaven. For he gives the light of his sun to both the bad and the good and sends rain on the just and the unjust alike. If you only love those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even the corrupt tax collectors do the same. Here is a curious fact, Christ gave us the order to love, but he does not ask us to be friends with them. So, the order to love all humanity is a good requirement on the part of God for each one of us.

“LOVE ONE ANOTHER WITH BROTHERLY LOVE, RESPECTING AND HONOURING EACH OTHER.”

Romans 12.10

Let us pray together: Eternal God, in your Word we find the affirmation that it is impossible to love you if we cannot love our neighbours whom we can see and touch. We increase faith to love everyone and thus be able to extend your Kingdom oh God.

We have an apologetic word that says: and because wickedness has multiplied, the love of many will grow cold. And that evil, we can also understand as the absence of manifestation of the love that God commands us to have for others. Albert Einstein is credited with this phrase, which explains this reasoning very well: Evil is the result of the absence of God in the hearts of human beings. It is like the cold that occurs in the absence of heat, or the darkness that reigns in the absence of light.

 

“NEVER STOP BEING DILIGENT; RATHER, SERVE THE LORD WITH THE FERVOR GIVEN BY THE SPIRIT.”

Romans 12.11

Let us pray together: Heavenly Father, in the Our Father, we confess that we want your will to be done on earth as it is done in heaven. For this, we cry out that you teach us to love others as you love all humanity.

All that is God is love. Even the holy wrath of God is a form of manifestation of his love, however incredible it may seem to us. If God requires us to love humanity, it is because he loved first. If God asks us for something, it is because he has previously done it. Let's have faith, let's believe God in his promises and words, and he will take care of making all the blessings that he has prepared for each one of us come true.

God bless you.
