Matthew, in the gospel sighs, reveals to us a dialogue of Jesus with a doctor of the law, to put him to the test. He says to him: "Master, what is the greatest commandment of the Law? Jesus answered him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your spirit" (Deut. 6,5). This is the greatest and first commandment. And the second, like this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself (Lev 19,18). On these two commandments are all the Law and the Prophets. "

COMMENT OF A.BIGCUORE. Jesus sums up all his gospels well: you will love your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your spirit and with your neighbor as yourself.
Every Christian should have imprinted this thought and placed it in the doorway of his house, never to be forgotten!

Unfortunately, this is not what is happening in the world. God first loved us, but we humans, as a rule, put God in the background. We must not forget that He does not need us. God subsists for himself. It is enough for itself!

It is we human beings who need God and his blessing. God created us out of love and wants us to live this love daily in communion with our brothers.
We were born with the ability to love that God has given us as an inheritance. However, when we are adults, we forget God and allow ourselves to be seduced by the goods of this world (money, power, sex, luxury, technology, etc.). They are the true IDOLATRIES of the modern world!
"Show the world how good it is to take care of yourself and how good it is to avoid putting your life at risk. In a nutshell, tell the world: live, "choose life rather than death," do not go through this existence just for passing. " ( 1 )

 Our life should be shared with the community brothers and with the environment in which we live. The Christian must reflect the light of God! The next must feel that the Christian has something DIFFERENT to be shared. He must reflect the light of the Holy Spirit which he received at the occasion of his baptism. To live is to share! We share the life, the love and all the good feelings that God has accumulated to us!

A holy and happy Sunday to all! Blessings of peace and joy in your hearts! Shalom!
