I am retired now, a full-time writer. I still actively do retreats. I love the works of Thomas Merton and my new book, "Spiritual Journaling -God's Whispers in Daily Living" is available on Kindle and Amazon. http://amzn.to/qQz6Ng
Christ expressed all His teachings in His last commandment. "Love each
other, as I loved you. Everyone will see that you are my disciples, if
you love each other." He did not say, "if you believe," but "if you
love."

MUTUAL LOVE.....Romans 13:8 "Let there be no undaid debt except the debt of love one for another."
LOVING AND KIND.....Ephesians 4:32 "...be kind to one another, and merciful, generously forgiving one another, as also God in Christ has lovingly forgiven you."
LOVE.........."Father, I shall dwell in them and show them My love...the self same love with which You have loved Me." (cf John 17:26)
Mother Theresa and Love.........."It's not how much we do, but how much love we put into what we do."
HEART OF GOD...
behold, this good heart -
come...now come, to Me, draw near;
feel My fervent love."
ORIGIN IN GOD...... I John 4:7 "Beloved, let us love one another because love has it origin in God and those who love are indeed children of God and know of His ways."
LOVE EXPRESSED IN BLESSING OTHERS.......Psalm 133:3 "The Lord God pour His blessings upon thee...the Lord out of Sion, the very maker of heaven and earth!"
TRUE STORY........A story of real unselfish love. I will call them John and Mary...of course not their real names. John and Mary were having serious differences and were going to split up. They were apart perhaps three months and Mary got pregnant by another man. When John and Mary decided to make another try at marriage, Mary told him about the pregnancy. It did not matter...John would love her and this child...and cherish the baby and raise her as his own flesh. If someone wants to hear a story of unselfish love...tell them this one. It is completely true. When a person loves, they are enabled to do what they thought they could never do. Love will find a way.
