One Coin, Two Sides
Asked which was the greatest commandment among hundreds in the Law, Jesus answers with a synthesis no one expected: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart," and a second, "like it": "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Matthew 22:37-39). Then he concludes: "All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments" (Matthew 22:40).
Love as Action
In the Gospels, love for one's neighbor is rarely described as a feeling; it is almost always an action: stopping to help (Luke 10:33-34), feeding the hungry (Matthew 25:35), visiting the sick or imprisoned (Matthew 25:36), forgiving seventy times seven (Matthew 18:22).
A Question for Today
Who, within your reach today, could receive a bit of that concrete love? Maybe it's a call you have been postponing, a word of encouragement, or simply paying attention to someone nobody else is noticing.
