Wednesday of the fourth week of lent Sometimes it is difficult to fathom the love of God. This is because sometimes we think of love in human terms. The best love is a mother's love for her child. Sometimes, mothers fail to give this love to their children, but all mothers must love their children. Today's readings speak to us about God's immense love for us, which is continuously active for our salvation. Even if a woman should forget her child on her breast, God cannot forget us. He is continuously working through his servants to set us free and to guide us to salvation. This is one side of God's love. The other side is the price that his son must pay for our freedom. Lent is a time to ponder God's love because it takes us right through the expression of God's love through his son Jesus Christ who lays down his life for us. St. John in 15:13 "No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends. It is a time to think about all the things you got and went through not because you were the special one but because God was by your side. God is asking you not to be like the Jews who did not believe even when Jesus told them he was the son of God, but to love his son and do whatever he tells us. Just ask yourself how much of your time you give to your God who gives you the life you have. Secondly, how you can love the people created. How many times have you gone out of your way to show people? If we want to continue receiving God's love, we must love him back and ask for forgiveness when our conduct is against God's commandment of love. Lent is a time to show love to others by sharing our resources with others or offering support to others. Instead of wanting someone to ask you, offer yourself willingly and freely.
