Rediscover Jesus—Radical Love LIFE IS A COURSE DESIGNED to teach us to love. There are many different types of love. There is affection, which is fondness developed through familiarity, most commonly founded in families. There is friendship, such as the love that exists between girlfriends, or mates, as we would say in Australia. There is romantic love, the experience of being “in love” or loving someone in particular above all others. And there is agape, the unconditional love that Jesus models for us. The way we respond to everything that happens in our lives causes us to either love more or love less. Sometimes we turn away from love because it can be painful. Sometimes we turn away from love because we don’t want to be hurt. And sometimes we turn away from love because we are afraid of where it will lead us. Love deeply desires everything that is good for the other person. This is why every day, in every country, regardless of culture or religion, parents make sacrifices for their children. They lay down their lives for the good of their children. This sacrificial love is inspiring. It is inspiring in a parent, and yet it fades in comparison to the outrageously sacrificial love that Jesus displayed by dying for us on the cross. Dying on the cross was radical. Jesus was innocent and he could have escaped and avoided all the pain and suffering. The cross is radical love. “No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends” (John15:13). Jesus poured himself out for us on the cross, but this was just the final expression of what he had been doing everyday during his public life. He was constantly pouring himself out for others. Then he would go away to a quiet place to get reenergized so that he could pour himself out again. We find the purest expression of love in the cross. What’s even more radical is that he invites us to love radically too. Let’s resolve, right now, to love like we have never loved before. Point to Ponder: At the end, when you face God, perhaps what he will ask is: How well did you love? Verse to Love: “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” Question of Consider: What are you laying down your life for? Prayer: Jesus teach me to love with abandon.

Fifth Sunday of Easter This week’s readings call us to live what we celebrate each week in the Eucharist: that we love one another in Christ. Our celebration is dead if it does not transform us into God’s people, a people of love and service. Paul’s ministry brought him out of the Jewish world, into the Gentile world. Who is it that needs to hear God’s word and experience God’s love from us this week? Quinto Domingo de Pascua Las lecturas de esta semana nos llaman a vivir aquello que celebramos cada semana en la Eucaristía: que nos amemos los unos a los otros en Cristo. Nuestra celebración está muerta si no nos transforma en gente de Dios, gente de amor y servicio. El ministerio de Paul lo sacó del mundo Judío, hacia el mundo Gentil ¿Quién necesita escuchar la palabra de Dios y experi-mentar el amor de Dios esta semana?
