Love Makes Us Generous

When we love we become generous. The “no time” is now “all the time” and the “no budget” is now “we can find a way”. This is the beauty of love, it inspires us to think more and do good for the other.

The bible reading from Matthew 5:38-42, “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you,” becomes more sensible in the light of love.


Without love this reading is hard to swallow but with love it makes sense. Only in love can we comprehend what is incomprehensible.
