Evening: Psalm 105:23-45; Luke 10:25-37
Love in our culture has been watered down to romance ... But Love is a movement of the will more than of feelings; Love decides to behave in a particular way. Even in marriage, romantic love cannot sustain a relationship for the long haul. Similarly, in love of neighbour, the will makes the heart and soul of our being ready to put Love into action. Love involves heart, soul, mind and strength; it shows itself in simple, neighbourly deeds without which human society fails – help in time of need, kindness, a listening ear, trust, friendship, mercy and generosity.
