"'You shall love the Lord your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'"
- Matthew 22:37-38
Reflection: If we love our neighbor, we automatically love God as well. For it is in the unity of this twofold love that God has constituted the fullness of the Law and the Prophets.
- St. Leo the Great
Prayer: Loving Father, help me to realize that love is the most powerful force in the world. Let me love You and my neighbor because of You.
From: Every Day Is A Gift (Catholic Book Publishing Corp., New York)
