TO LOVE TILL IT HURTS


This day and age, a lot is being said about Love...the magic word. we see love stories in magazines, films etc. we also hear a lot of modern music based on this four letter word, but does society really knows the true meaning of the word? Jesus Christ showed us the ultimate meaning on how to love.. real love is always based on sacrifice, it is unconditional, you give without wanting nothing in return. mother Theresa said that 'we must love till it hurts', this is the authentic christian way on how to love.

Jesus showed us the way on how to love as he died for us, for our salvation, so that we may live. mother Mary cooperated with the plan of salvation by saying yes to God...to do his will, this lead her to pass the agony with her son. near the cross she bore us all with the deep pain she suffered for and with her son, she became the mother of all nations. Jesus is calling us for conversion by sending his mother Mary to various parts of the world. we in Malta are having the grace and the privilege to have the mother of god appearing in Malta, praying with us and advice us on how to live Jesus' way, in fact she sends us to him. A lot of people say how could this be? for me it is quite simple, when you love a person,you do everything you can to communicate with the person, like by e mail, post,telephone, sms, or even sending another person. so if we poor human beings do everything in our hands to try to communicate with others, how can we limit God?... the creator of heaven and earth. we hear others say the there are too many phenomena going on in Malta.....my opinion is that these are eye openers, they are signs for us to remind us to change our ways and to really learn to love God first unconditional.
prayer: father in the name of Jesus, send forth your holy spirit and give us light so that we may humbly accept that your ways are not our ways, and give us the strength to work for the salvation of other souls, who are our brothers and sisters in you. Amen
