We are all blessed by our God with various talents (Mt. 25:14-30). There is “one talent” that every individual is given: it is the ability to give and receive love. Loving is as natural as breathing, because we are made by our Creator who is love and who made us to love. We are given this gift of love to not only experience who God is, but also to reveal and draw others to Him. The more love is “invested” and shared with everyone, the greater will be our returns. We will be called by the Lord to give an account as to how well we loved. Loving Father, we thank You for loving us into existence. May our lives reflect the light and beauty of Your love, so that we will attract others to You and Your glorious kingdom. Amen.
Blessings,
Fr. Howie
