Is faith a place where we should expect to fail a lot.
Especially in area of loving others. Because l struggle more in these areas...
.l recognise that the first commandment is to love god with all your being. that's a commandment. not negotiable.
Coming next is other commandment (which, lets suggest is not negotiable), but rather the same as the first is ..`to love your neighbour as if they are your self` . . . the commandment Jesus cites as the minimum.
Not suggested as a visionary type thingy, not workshop handout but a reachable goal, But here l shame myself .
I don't know what enough is.
LOVE here is not an intellectual exercise but requires the courage, something we all suspect we have got enough inside each of us.
But life, the world, individuals, and community are not good.
To take responsibility for whoever is in need love, like giving away everything you have and sharing it with those who haven't.
THAT REALLY HARD... I ASK IS IT POSSIBLE, HOW DO WE ACHIEVE THIS,
l can only practice this by failing every day at this.
