Jesus said, "You must love the Lord they God with all your heart , with all your soul and with all your mind . This is the first and greatest commandment. The second resembles it: you must love your neighbour as yourself"
Matthew 22:35-39

Love is the heart and the centre of all things, the power, the meaning and the joy: it is the pain, the challenge, the redemption and the resurrection. In this knowledge and power, freedom and fulfilment does the obedient, mature child of the Father progress along the way in His Kingdom which is eternal. The child of the Father who is orientated and committed to His creative love reflects His love according to the measure of his commitment. So can the quality of his life be seen and known as yeast is perceived in bread.

So with the relationship between the Father's loving, committed ones and their fellowmen. His light enlightens, deepens and gives point, purpose and significance to every single encounter where there is openness and the spirit of caring. And the challenge and responsibility presented by the cry of needy humanity is made bearable by guidance in the proper response and commitment of each in money and kind and self-giving where it is sought. I am the Love which the Father prodigally pours forth.
