I just arrived from church. (I write this blog at Sunday, 26 Oct 08).. Usually, there is nothing special about the reading. But today, I think God gives a notice to me through today's Gospel. The Gospel is taken from
Matt 22:34-40. What really strikes me is this gospel is really really match with my problem right now..
In the Gospel it is said..
37 | And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. |
38 | This is the great and first commandment. |
39 | And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. |
What strikes me because I now have a feeling with some1. Then when homily, the priest tells that if you love the Lord your God but you don't love your neighbor & yourself, it means you love some1 in 2-D which can't be touched or felt. If you love your neighbor but you don't love the Lord, it means you love some1 in 3-D who can be touched or felt but you lost the most important things in your lives that is Lord your God.
The priest says.. Love the Lord your God, your neighbor and yourself with whole heart not half-half... During this month, I feel I just further from God, and focusing with only my neighbor (read: my friends). My feeling also still half-half with my neighbor meaning that I am not ready to love with whole heart..
today I learn to love with whole heart; tomorrow I make a difference
