LOVE IS WHO WE ARE

Fifth Sunday of Easter Year C John 13:31-33a,34-35 In today's gospel we hear Jesus's commandment. “Love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another.” Friends, LOVE is our mark and identity. “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another." Do we really demonstrate the love of God to others? You know what, today we are reminded that we have the responsibility to show to the world who we are by loving one another. Friends, learn to love well! Why do we need to love? For three reasons: First, love is the weakness of the enemy. When we love the devil trembles. When we love, we can transform our enemies. When we love, we can change the world. Love will make all things beautiful. Second, we need to love because love, can make all things beautiful. Love is the force that makes an earth a heavenly paradise. “There shall be no more death or mourning, crying out of pain, for the world that was, has passwd away.” Folks, love makes a world a happy and perfect place to live in. Today and forever, love without conditions. If we really love others, then let us love them without terms and conditions because it is a love not a bussiness contract. Friends, love without limit for love has no expiration date. Finally, when we love expect some troubles and persecutions. “It is necessary for us to undergo many hardships to enter the kingdom of God.” But do not be afraid for love is the greatest conquerors. It conquer all obstacles and defies all storms. Friends, the beauty of love will lead us to our salvation and of the salvation of others. Start to love the way God loves. Blessings Fr. Jhack
