Non risparmiarsi nell’amar
Do not hold back in loving
“We need to enlarge our heart to the measure of the heart of Jesus. How much work that means!
Yet this is the only thing necessary. When this is done, all is done. It means loving everyone we meet, as God loves him or her. And since we live in time, we must love our neighbors one by one, without holding in our heart any leftover affection for the brother or sister met a moment before. It is the same Jesus, after all, whom we love in everyone. If anything leftover remains, it means that the preceding brother or sister was loved for our sake or for theirs… not for Jesus.”
-Chiara Lubich
