Hello everyone,
I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I am sending you a message from 2,000 years ago; it is good to remember it and to put it to the test every day.
The love of Christ
If anyone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let them have your cloak as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go two miles with them. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you. You have heard that it was said, “Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I tell you: Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat and persecute you, so that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the righteous and on the unrighteous. For if you love those who love you, what reward will you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even the pagans do the same? Therefore, be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect. Matthew 5:40-48
What a wonderful lesson Jesus Christ gave us at that time! But how many have grasped the deep meaning of this message? Two thousand years have passed, and human beings are once again mired in matter, duality, and triviality. They use the word “love” in every context; it has never been so trite, conflating it with desire and sex.
Yet, in parallel, a growing number of men and women from all countries, of all races and of all faiths are rediscovering today the sacred meaning of His message and the depth of His Love. http://hilsong.giani.fr/amourduchrist.htm
Peace and Love in your hearts
kisses
