Jesus gave us the great commandment to, “Love one another
as I have loved you.” We live in a world
where people struggle to love and feel unloved.
It is important for us to remember Jesus’ call to love. As we love others we are also living out Jesus’
call to love others. Jesus loved and
cared for all those he met. He cared for
women, children, widows, orphans, the underprivileged, the sick, the rich and
the poor. Jesus had no favorites he
loved everyone equally. We are called to
do the same. As disciples of Jesus we
are called to love and care for our neighbors.
During this Lenten season it is good for us to look at our relationships
and ask the question, “Have I been as loving as I could be? Have I treated all
people with the same respect that I desire from them?” Let us live the remainder of this Lenten
season remembering and living out Jesus’ great commandment!
