What Does it Mean to Love Your Neighbor as Yourself?
Let mercy and kindness be your guides
Spirit, help me to love the way You command me to love — as I would love myself — with mercy and kindness.
We become neighbors when we are willing to cross the road for one another. There is a lot of road crossing to do. We are all very busy in our own circles. We have our own people to go to and our own affairs to take care of. But if we could cross the road once in a while and pay attention to what is happening on the other side, we might indeed become neighbors. ― Henri J.M. Nouwen
In many religions, love becomes the foundation of how we are meant to exist in this world.
