God loved us first and invites everyone to the table of fellowship, everyone is invited, saints and sinners alike. Once they realised that Jesus loved them in spite of their sins and shortcomings, that love leads to transformation, metanoia.
It may take a long time to change but once we realize that Jesus loves us despite of our sins, change begins to take place, and this is our faith journey.
In this Sunday’s gospel, we read Jesus’ greatest commandments in Matthew 22:37-39, “You must love your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind." This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: "You must love your neighbour as yourself.”
The two are actually one commandment - I cannot say I love God and hate my neighbour; it’s connected and it’s hard to follow. The biblical love is action and responsibility, whether I like that person or not I must try to forgive. Jesus did not have feelings for his executioners but yet He loved them and asked His Father to forgive them. That is love, biblical, sacrificial love.
We ask Mother Mary to pray and intercede for us as we keep walking on our faith journey.
