Bible Reading
Let's reflect on reading the words of the Lord from Mark 12:33
33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
Jesus emphasizes that the greatest commandments focus on wholehearted love. We are called to love God fully with every part of ourselves and to love others with the same care we have for ourselves. This genuine love is far more valuable than any religious rituals or sacrifices. It highlights that authentic relationships and compassion are at the heart of faith.
The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God!
SPEAK LORD, YOUR SERVANT IS LISTENING.
Guide Question:
Do I act on my inner convictions, or stop at good intentions? What can I do today to love “in truth” and not just in theory?
